I can only hope that I have improved a little bit since I made this card: SC24 Happy Faces by sleepyinseattle at Splitcoaststampers
It seemed like a happy card at the time but I've thought about deleting it from my gallery more than once
I changed the stamp set, colors, and ribbon and hopefully I have brought it a little bit more up to date.
Thanks for a great challenge, Charlene!! This was fun!
Stamp sets: Wonderful Words II, Oh, So Lovely and Twill.
Cardstock: Blush Blossom, Basic Black, Whsper White.

This is just gorgeous Joanne - and I feel a case coming on...saving to fav's - love your colours - but truly - the older card is wonderful too!! It brought a smile to my face!! I say - don't be so hard on yourself!! The old one had it's own charm... and if you really want to see some what was I thinking.. I can direct you to quite a few cards in my gallery!!

Joanne, isn't it amazing how much we have changed and how far we have come!!! That's what we do for each other...we spur on creativity! (I hope!). Your re-make is certainly beautiful. Soft and subtle. No need to say how much I prefer it!! It's just lovely! Great job with the DARE!
