The best laid plans and all that. This card started out to be a combo IC247 and QFTD01. (I was not aware of QFTD01-07 and did not join in until QFTD08. So, thought I'd play catch-up.)
My first idea would have included a CASE of one of Mutnik's cards. Sorry, Mutnik. It didn't work out, but I will try again to CASE one of your wonderful cards. I had to change everything and this is the end result.
I was inspired by the pear, so I guess this still meets the IC requirements. If not, please see Anne Ryan, my defense counsel. (I learned to make excuses, i.e., cheat, from her.)
TFL.

Got my attention right away with this beautiful card. That pear is one of my favorite stamps.

WOWZERS!! I love everything about this!! The colors (always love orange!), the papers, the punches, and especially the design - sometimes creativity takes over and while it's not what was planned it usually turns into something SPECTACULAR - and yours did!!!

wait, wait...wait just a minute. Whew, I'm back in my chair. Give me a minute to catch my breath over this. Geez, I think I may have busted up my leg over this card. Girl, you've passed the test: you can cheat as good as me any day! It's taken you awhile, but I've been patient with you. Wow, when you cheat, you really cheat. Great job on the cheating part.

Now, about the card. Holy Moses, Lori, what a grand card this is. Plus, I see you have a newly released spellbinders. YOu're always first in line to get the latest and greatest. I adore this card. It's got so many elements and colors. This is, hands down, one dramatic and grand slam creation. You and cheating do well together.
