This card is in honor of today's Featured Stamper, Rose Reynolds. I chose this card of Rose's to CASE : Geranium Birthday by Rose Reynolds at Splitcoaststampers
Changes are my geraniums are stamped and Rose's are die cut. Rose's is a birthday card and I added a quote to mine instead. I'm really not happy with this; the framed quote takes up too much space at the bottom and makes the whole card off balance. I'm uploading anyway because it took me awhile to make and I do want to acknowledge Rose : ) Enjoy your week, Rose; you have a fabulous, colorful gallery!

Well, I love that stamp and they way you inked it. Great colors and it looks like watercolor to boot. I think leaving the bg CAS really lets that flower shine. And, that quote is fabulous. I can see what you mean about it taking a lot of room, but you placed it in a great spot and I don't think it detracts from the flower -- I think it's the flower that makes the quote stand out. We are all our own worst critics. Wonderful card and someone will be delighted to receive this.

I really like it and I am glad you loaded it. The words are sweet so the fact that they take up a lot of space still works. Lovely flowers and lovely card! Sweet case. Hugz

Aren't we always our own harshest critics - I know I often finish a card and think it's not at all what I envisioned! I can't imagine anyone not loving this though - it's a quote that deserves a prominent spot! TFS
