For the wonderful inspiration challenge this week, I submit this card. I am never ready to let go of summer so I have leaves on my trees. Well so did my inspiration piece shown here. I used brillinat blue and turquoise inks and sponged some color in to emulate the inspiration piece. I feel this can be a nice card for someone who may need some encouraging words, and who doesn't these days? Thanks for looking!

NancyRuth, you did a fantastic job on this. I loved the original, but I think I like yours even more. Love the embossed background and your pretty blue trees and cheering thoughts.

Nancy-you and your dry embossing - it is like your signature lately and you just seem to know how to combine it with other elements and it all just WORKS!! This card absolutely rocks - jumps right OUT of the gallery!!! The colors - perfect!!!!
