Audrey, this is beautiful! I am so proud that you finally uploaded, and this is simply beautiful, especially IRL! I love this layout with the border and great texture. I also love the color combo and how you paper-piecing the image! Keep up the good work!

Thanks Cheryl! You are the consummate Card Artist. I am a groupy!
Still trying to find a style I can authentically work out of. Any vintage, collage stylists out there? Love to see examples of how you combined this style with all the elements avaiable to us in the world of carding.

Well, if you've got Cheryl by your side, you're in good hands! Glad she has encouraged you to start a gallery! I can't offer any advice for the Copics but Cheryl sure knows how to put them to use! Great card - it's got what it takes --> fun image, lots of texture, great ribbon, funky embellishment, and best of all, a fantastic punched border. (I'm a bit partial to anything punched). Keep those cards coming! And say hi to Cheryl for me!
