I made this for today's Do It Yourself - Designer Paper Challenge. I was excited to play in this challenge and enjoyed making this...it took a looooong time, but I really like it.
This is a CASE of a card from PickleTree's gallery. She was the featured stamper not long ago and I missed that challenge...so I am making up for it. I changed the paper, image, and colors. I love, love, love her gallery! If you haven't seen it, you should definitely take a look! Here is her card: FOURSQUARE BABY BOY
Making the DP was fun...I drew stripes and stamped flowers and flourishes for background paper. This project turned out to be much larger than I thought it would...it's actually a postcard. Thankfully, it just fits the chocolate envie from the Carousel Notes set in the Occasions Mini.
Have a great weekend! TFL!!

Leisa, my compliments on one outstanding card: Your custom designed papers are phenomenal! I love those square and your images are ever so perfect for this card. I love how your ribbon pulls together, ever so slightly, the colors you have in your images. This is simply one fabulous card.
