OKAY.....so I need to know if THIS has ever happened to any of YOU, or am I the only moron who ever did this?? I was stalking the challenge last night, cleaning up my stamp room and sort of killing time waiting for the challenge to come up to see if I was big enough for it before sleeping or NOT. So I went on there, noticed the one from last week and right above it, there was another one called Garden Pickin or something like that. I thought Oh goody gee, just when I thought they were making me turn away from the flowers......here is a flower challenge talking about it being the end of summer, etc. So we were supposed to feature something from our garden....so I made a card featured Black Eyed Susans which happen to be among my favorites and we have a mass of them in your yard that bloom at the tail end of the summer. PERFECT, right? I take at least an hour making my card, being careful to watercolor it with great detail....and then I download it, tell my story, blah, blah, blah, blah......and suddenly I notice that in the time it took me to make my card SIXTY EIGHT other people have already downloaded cards!!! Holy Shnikes this is a popular one.....so I go to the gallery and only then do I realize, my stalking was foiled cuz I just did an OLD CHALLENGE.....and the new one is STILL NOT UP!!!! Needless to say, I deleted my card, and today, I happily added some scallops to the bottom which really do make it cuter I have to admit and I am up and running!! Am I the only one out there who has ever done this???? Happy Friday everyone! I'm gonna go take a NAP since I was up till the wee hours working on THIS one last night!! ;) TGIF!!! ;)

The polka dots and the weave embossing just look amazing together with these flowers and in gorgeous orange and brown! And yes, I've started working on a card for an "old" challenge before - so glad you could make it work for this one, it's stunning!

Oh my, you do deserve a prize..what a horror story. Can't say I've done the wrong challenge but I've done other things I'm sure could compare. I'm so glad you could salvage this beauty. Those black-eyed susans are gorgeous on that wonderful texture. Of course, the ribbon is beautiful and goes without saying, but I will. Be careful next time. LOL
