My sister Lois (clownmom) is visiting this weekend and I wanted to do today's challenge. This is my first challenge card -- and the first card in my gallery! I chose the Calu Hummingbird plate -- http://lamadesigns.com/store/show/t_k27?cat=tabletop I cut the card base using the scallop Sizzix card, stamped the image, colored it with Prismacolor and Copic markers, and added the ferns. The outside border is from a Cuttlebug die.

As you mentioned on your comment on my card for this challenge, we picked the same plate! You did a TERRIFIC job!! This was NOT an easy inspiration to translate and you did it beautifully. Congratulations!!

Wow, congrats on your upload, wonderful card. This caught my eye immediately, as I wanted to use the same platter for inspiration (but ended up somewhere else). Great job on the IC!
