I chose matt as it appears on pretty much every one of my creations. I have a few sheets of card with a pearl lustre to them and at Christmas I use mirri board but even then I will still have a matt mat!!
I think it gives a more defined and true colour and I always print any digital papers on to matt paper/card for a touch of luxury.
I used a matt ribbed card in steel grey for the card base and mats on this card. I used Clementine with her watering can and daisies to coordinate with the totally gorgeous Pink Petticoat papers and finished off with pearls, a little sentiment and a spotty bow.

Hi Sarah,
what a very cute and lovely card.
Great designing as always.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
Just popping back to say thanks for joining my 'Garden Life' challenge at Passion for Promarkers this week and Good Luck.

This is sooooo adorable Sarah! And I have to agree with the Matt finish. While miri board and such things are of course great, I find the shiny papers that often come as magazine freebies (the ones in the middle of the mag) give such a cheap, tacky finish. Too much shine is no good!
Oh, and with DT cap on: Thank you for joining us at Sweet Stampin' this week. Sammy-x
