Hi, Carole! Another quick stop to admire your work from the last week or so. I'm a little more caught up, but still a ways to go. I love your stamps, colors, and designs on all. You're so good with the fancy folds and techniques. I know Marianne was delighted to receive this card. One of these days I'll be more current with my visits, sigh.

Great use of those papers and the sketch. Pia's card looks lovely too. It is interest to see how cards can be similar but still very different! xx

Julia Aston said...

What lovely papers you used on this card Carol - those arched windows with the flowers are so pretty and your die cut bloom coordinates with it nicely - sweet button for the flower center! Julia xx

Lovely interpretation of the sketch. Everything is so coordinated and you made the sketch your own. I just enjoyed the card so much, I had to read the challenge you set yourself to, the sketch.
