This actually started out as a birthday card with a lovely image of flowers... but then I didn't like how the flowers turned out, so I played with some other stamps. It was going to say "Happy Birthday" at the bottom, but I couldn't find a "Happy Birthday" that I liked, so it turned into a panel of French Script. The number of pearls changed several times, I added some ribbon, added lace, took off lace, added more lace...
Basically, this is a case of the finished card looking absolutely nothing like what I expected! But I like how it turned out!
Thanks for looking!

ha, Ha...you sound just like me. Love what it turned out to be though! That lace is so luscious!! I think the french script is super across the bottom too.

I actually had that same experience with the challenge this week. I find that those are the days when the result seems to get the most feedback...positive, of course.
This a beautiful work of art! Great job!
