Meaning of Life

Poster: nwilliams6

I had time to case another of Karen's cards - yea!!!!!

Here is the card I cased:

IC204 - Ladybugs n' Daisies..... by Karen B Barber at Splitcoaststampers

I had to improvise since she does such beautiful things with colors, sponging, chalking, etc. I tried to mix some some colors together and sponge the sentiment/image and add some interest like she does. This is the closest I could come. I changed the colors, image, sentiment, the way she did the ribbon, and I added a few extra rows of faux stitching.

TFL!

Your card is fabulous. I like your quote and how you framed it to make it yours. Cool idea to use fibers with ribbon for an accent, too.
