I had to substitute Wild wasabi for the Cucumber Crush but it's close. I went to get some Sahara sand paper after deciding to use this stamp and I found the panel with the oval cut already. That is what sparked the design of this card.

Lovely card, Pat. Love how your "find" inspired your card. The blue dahlia-like flower is the focal point and surrounded by the arching greenery and sweet bird.

What a well designed card, Pat. That adorable button with the bow is so cute. The curved branches and bird make such a nice oval frame. Great use of this week's colors.

Isn't that great when a "find" helps your card come together! And it worked beautifully in this case - love the pretty bird and the leaves and that little button is such a delightful detail!
