THIS was a STRETCH for me!! These colors, though they ARE striking together sorta gave me fits. When we can't do what's comfortable, we stretch, and that's GOOD for us, RIGHT? Usually when I stretch I end up really liking what a make, but this time, eh, so-so. I forgot all about dessert too. :( I like the saying on this stamp thoughÂ…..Life doesn't have to be perfect to be wonderful - so many times we think "Things will be awesome as soon as ______, or I would be so happy if only _________, fill in your blanks. I just wanna be content where God has me NOW, and not always waiting for some perfect thing to happen, right?? Happy Tuesday everyone!!

Well, Karen, you stretched this one right out to a perfect ending. Sorry you struggled with this but it is a 'challenge', right? I like the sentiment too and it is a great reminder that nothing is perfect this side of heaven but we can find things wonderful.

I think this card is gorgeous! You create the most awesome backgrounds, and I love the way you threaded the ribbon through the tag. And the bow is perfect!

well, Mrs Barber, your eh~so~so is probably over the top gorgeous in every one else's book. Why are we always so hard on ourselves and forgiving to others? I'd say listen to all these comments and be proud...you are a masterful colorist and while these are some strong colors, you've gone and done 'em in your unique style. I do see something I love and don't usually see on your work...the skinny trim...you and my mermaid must have the same dietary restrictions!!!
love your stuff, Mrs B!!!

You stretch really well, Karen, and now that it's over you can relax and breathe more freely! I love the interweaving of these images and that big banner & bow with lots of loops to set it off nicely!
