Congratulation to Pat Smethers, Queen for the Day 03. Her gallery is filled filled to the brim with beautiful creations, many of which are in my favorites. I picked her idyllic Summer Days to CASE.
I had originally intended to do an easel card, but had my first panel glued down before realizing my mistake, so my card is an A2 instead of a square. Oops... I changed the stamps, colors, and flowers, but kept the basic layout of Pat's card.
Thanks Pat, for sharing your artistic creations and sweet comments. Your encouragement is so appreciated.
For the inspiration challenge, I chose the Blue Lotus votive candle as my inspiration piece, embossing the image with a glittery blue EP.
Thanks for looking.
