I kept Shannon's *Zindorf* BG technique covered with micro beads - it's the main part of the design that attracted me to this card! I got my top color on the background too dark but other than that, I'm pleased with my first "zindorf" attempt.
I also kept Shannon's layout. I changed the color scheme, stamped images, similar ribbon treatment, I added felt flowers and a gem brad, and omited the butterfly.
All supplies are SU. I plan to teach this card at a workshop. Thanks for the fun Shannon!
and . . . thanx so much for looking!
edit: I popped off the main image and added a black layer to frame it. Looks more dramatic that way. Hopefully the thumbnail will be edited soon so you can see the new and improved. . .

Wow! This is so awesome! And I actually LOVE the darkest part of your background...it makes the colors more dramatic! Perfect idea to use the micro-beads! This is going into my faves!
