Hi everybody. I made this card for today's Featured Stamper 272, Karen Haman. She rocks and her work rocks too. It's just one of those galleries that you go back to over and over again for inspiration. It was hard to settle on one card but I eventually picked Karen's Raspberry Rosie. I loved the colors and kept that theme, but changed everything else. I bumped up how rick and vivid colors are, used a different stamp set and sentiment, etc., but you can clearly tell where my inspiration came from.
Congratulations Karen and enjoy your richly deserved special day and week!
God bless you and thank you so much for stopping by to see me today. The details are on my blog at Cindy Coutts Designs (direct link to this card) and I'd love to have you visit me to see the additional pictures and other fun stuff I have going on.
I have church first thing in the morning and then I will do my commenting in the afternoon.
