This is my card for VSN Challenge H to case a card from one of your favorite stampers and to add some bling. One of my stamping idols is Mona Pendelton - I just love her vintage style. It seems to come so naturally to her, yet I really struggle with it. I CASED this card of hers from the SCS gallery: happy birthday wishes by Westies at Splitcoaststampers
And I so need to learn how to do a decent double bow - this just doesn't look right, despite following the instructions I found on the internet!

You may have struggled, but it turned out SO pretty! Love this and I think your bow looks great!
