I just have to say Wow, Beate, your gallery is outstanding!!!! I just love your style, every single one of your cards is just beautiful!!! I had a really difficult time choosing.
I changed the colors ever so slightly, I used mellow moss rather than kiwi kiss and purely pomegranate rather than tangerine tango. I didn't have that stamp set, so I used the rose from watercolor garden. I wasn't sure what the bg of her rose was, but I used the french script bg in river rock then sponged in close to cocoa around the edges. I used always artichoke and mellow moss for the leaves of the rose. I chose to go with a grosgrain stitched ribbon rather than the polka dot ribbon, although I do like the polka dot better. I used a martha sterwart boarder punch rather than the scallop edge punch and rather than doing the scallop circle with a saying I used the vanilla hodge podge hardware for the sentiment.
I am so glad I was able to participate in this challenge. Beate your gallery truely inspired me!
Thanks so much for looking and for all of your kind words!

This is so gorgeous. Last nite, I spent 3.5 hours trying to come with something that fit this beautiful card. I would have been horribly embarrassed if I hadnt tossed it: Mine would have been a disaster compared to what you've done here. Your card is beautifully cased and done to perfection!
