Photo Details
Poster: mother's daughter

 This is a card I entered into our county fair and won First place and Best of Section. Talked about thrilled when I first saw the big rosette that was with the card at the fair.
I had shown my LSS owner what cards I was entering, and she asked why I wasn't doing a spirelli card. So off I went to do one and this is the result. Now I have to thank a wonderful SCS friend for a big part of this card too, Bridget, aka bfinlay, sent me some gorgeous threads and this copper thread was one of them.

I did the circles in opposing colors of thread and with the center circles, each half has opposing threads. The bg is stamped with a Memory Box leaf stamp and embossed. Topping it all off is a gorgeous copper wired ribbon.

So a huge Thank you to Helene and Bridget for your wonderful inspiration. It took me to winning a Best of Section rosette and First place!
With wonderful friends like Helene and Bridget, I cannot go wrong!

I still think the "big rosette ribbon" should have been shown with this card.!!! I am glad you were awarded it anyway!

I agree, you should have shown off your blue ribbon with this card! Oh MY Goodness. This is about one of the most amazing things I have ever had the pleasure to see. It is jaw dropping gorgeous! I can't even IMAGINE the time it took to do this prescise piece of incredible art work!

No wonder it won 1st place...it's GORGEOUS, Jennifer!! Love the design of the positive/negative and of course, your stitching with the gorgeous threads is beyond belief! Your cards are treasures(I know, I'm a proud owner of one)!

Beautiful new avatar, Jennifer.
