This is in honor of Chrissy, my Sister Stick at ODBD. Chris, I am so happy to see your work and talent honored here today! Your gallery is loaded with goodness and delight! Today I chose your Pyramid Graduate card, because I love the gorgeous layers and how the Autumn colors seem to be dancing right off your paper. So beautiful!
I flipped the direction to suit my image, but kept the layers you inspired and the pearls. Using ODBD's Porch set and framing it with Spellbinder's Fleur de Lis Rectangles, the main image is stamped in Creamy Caramel.
Congrats to you Sister! You wanna have a cup of tea on this porch? Hugs, missing you!

Oh, can I come for a cup of tea, too? I would love to spend a few sweet hours with you, Pat...just chattin' it up! Your card is a delight...that porch definitely looks inviting! The neutral colors are so warm and earthy...the bow just coordinates perfectly with the feel of the card. A beautiful CASE of Chrissy's card, but I am SO not surprised, everything you make is a work of art! ♥

Love those soft caramel and browns with just a little touch of color to make this image so inviting - those Spellbinders are so classy looking and as always, your bow rocks the entire card with its warm look! Hugs!
