Congratulations, Carolina! I had a marvelous time browsing her beautiful gallery...and narrowed my choice down to this card here. I started off CASEing the design, but veered slightly off to my own path. I did use the same stitch pattern around the perimeter. In keeping with the rules, I added a sentiment, omitted the picture and changed up the colors.

Andrea, this is lovely. The dps and colors are so vibrant. Love the pleated medalian in the center, and how you weaved your ribbons into one. Gorgeous card.
