This is for two challenges. First TLC491 which is to use scoring on your project. After I finished my card I realized I should have at least attempted to put some horizontal score lines on here, but I was so thrilled to get this done with out any major mishaps (I cut off the only boo-boo) that I called it GOOD!
Second is a tribute to Karen (FS389) our featured stamper who has one of the most delightful galleries I have been in! Her work is crisp, creative, and with many varied techniques and her work is beautiful!
My changes on my case of her card are:
I kept the basic layout, and kept it a thank you card. I used a paper bow instead of a ribbon, used different colors, added an extra layer of matting, scored instead of stamped, and added some brilliants.
Here is her card: French Foliage by karrenj at Splitcoaststampers
I added a few brilliants in the center of my flower but didn't fill in the entire area. I cut off the "brad part" and added the fancy brad to the center of the paper bow.
My lovely friends went in together and purchased the new Spellbinder "Tool n' One" for me. They all had ordered one on line and wanted me to have one as well so this is a thank you card for one of the ladies. If you haven't tried this new tool and use a lot of dies I advise its purchase, it is AMAZING!!! Works like a charm....

Another beautiful creation, Peggy. Your scoring looks fabulous, as does the flower and pretty paper bow. Love the brad on your bow. You just don't mess with perfection. I know how you feel getting through without major mishaps...been there.

Love your scoring on this Peggy! The center of your flower looks wonderful with the black beading! Not sure what brilliants is but I'd sure like to get some! Beautifully done and I love the brad in the center of your paper bow!

Thank you so much for those kind words about my gallery, Peggy! I love your card - it's so classy and the scoring really adds whole other dimension. And that bow - wow!

Gorgeous and elegant! That bow is beautiful and I love that you only put brilliants in some of the flower center. I think scoring it vertically only was a great way to go, keeping it more simple is very elegant. I have that tool and it is so handy for the very intricate dies - sure saves a lot of time.
