This was a great color combo that Julia chose for today! I like working with neutrals. I managed to work in some stripes for the dessert. I used one of my favorite older stamps, a frame stamp from Magenta around my image. I also did some free style stitching around the edge and added some fun accents that I got recently from My Mind's Eye.

Polly, another fabulous collage, vintage styled card. It is a treat to discover all your little accents and touches. Your card has immediate impact, but it is fun to linger and take it ALL in.
