For FS332... Sue the Featured Stamper has a fabulous gallery and I had a hard time picking just one! I needed to make an anniversary card for our son and his wife. I picked this card here for inspiration!
I used the ivory (mine is pearlized ivory cardstock) and black color theme and kept the same basic layout and I too used polka dots but different paper (Bo Bunny). My bow is paper (made from an SVG file and cut on my Cricut) , hers is ribbon. I added SB dies to the top for the sentiment and she did not. I also added a MS border under the bow and added some brilliants. Hers is more CAS and very beautiful! My sentiment is SU as is the black cardstock. I also added a brad to the center of my bow ((also Bo Bunny) The fancy swirls at the edge of the sentiment dies are Crafty Ann from a group of dies called Pinstripes (http://www.crafty-ann.com)!

I would have stopped at step 3 or 4. I am such a wimp when it comes to layering and embellishing. Every element added to this beauty just elevates the design to a new level and you end up with something wonderful.
