It was a CAS card and I took it a little further than CAS unintentionally, but I stayed true to the design and feel of Laurie card.
I used different color combo, patterned paper, flower and added pearls given to me in a RAK from Peggy-Sue - Thanks Peggy Sue!! I added some small pieces of ribbon on the left panel and added a small matching pearl in the center of each ribbon. I also trimmed out the borders of my panel with the SU scallop trim border punch.
I just happened upon some gorgeous Prima flowers in my stash that went perfectly with this color scheme and found some fibers to hang down from the flower to the greeting. I also used textured vanilla card stock since I wasn't using an embossing folder or b/g stamp. I used a corner round on the left and ride bottom sides of the card.
That's about it. This went to places, as usual, I never intended. So much for my very CAS card, but it is still in keeping with Laurie's beautiful card.
Thanks so much for taking the time to look and, again, Laurie, CONGRATS on being selected featured stamper today!!

Great Balls of Fire, Pam! This is just the most beautiful creation!! I love that side panel with, did you say, scraps? They are gorgeous. Also, the fibers to hang your sentiment from that beautiful flower. Everything is super. Love what you did with that ribbon...I'll surely have to case that someday. You really made a wonderful creation to honor Laurie. I love it bunches.
