I was inspired by both the inspiration piece and the delightful peek-a-boo tutorial! The tutorial was a real 'out of comfort zone' project. Even though it was very fun & easy to do, I still had a hard time with the layout since the front is divided almost in half. Fortunately the inspiration piece got me over the hump with the colors and the embossed inchie components...so I was happy with how it turned out! Sometimes you just have to step out of your comfort zone and take a leap of faith! LOL
I didn't photograph the inside, but when the card opens the second image is a poem that I typed in a calligraphy font and included as the inside message. The theme of the card is mostly related to the challenges of making it as a couple ;)

...and you thought you needed to step it up a notch or two? All 3 of your cards are gorgeous. This one is extraordinary. It looks like it has a light inside. Your image shines like no tomorrow. I don't particularly like inches, but I am fascinated by yours on the side. They are so perfectly aligned and just add so much to your design. Outstanding creations ... all 3 of them.

I love those little sentiments, Audrie! Beautiful flowers in the oval peek a boo panel! Love this one, and you did so well, considering it was out of your comfort zone~

So elegant! It maybe outside your comfort zone, but you should travel there more often! I love the great textures here and the subtle shading on your tiles. I think the overlapping pattern is inspired and with the word tiles on top of that...fabulous!
