The thing I used here that always made my lips freeze AND I HAD NEVER USED SINCE I GOT IT is the corner punch around the corner....I always just used these as borders....but I got really brave and went around the corners....first time here...don't look too close.....I mustered up my courage and went for it...so proud!! ;) These are new stamps too! LOVE them!

I reallly need to get off the computer and do something else!!! But I could not leave before commenting on this masterpiece, Karen. It it stunning. Love the emboss resist and tomorrow I am going to secretly, in the privacy of my own home, with the shades pulled, CASE this card. ;-) Now, I must give my DH and the dog some attention.

Karen, this is gorgeous! This has inspired me to try my punch around the page punches. I've never used them - too afraid or something! Your scene is grogeous! Fav'd.

Sigh! This is totally stunning! I love those new stamps and how you embossed them white. The sponging is superb! And I love your punched edges and the beautiful ribbon!

That set is on my hit list and I love how you have embossed it in white. Good for you for using the corner punch too! Beautifully framed image.

Way to go on mastering that border/corner punch set. That is the trickiest ever!! But what a wonderful impact it has. Love your white silhouettes against that gorgeous sky. Nicely done
