Hi everyone! This card is for today's Featured Stamper Challenge - it's so good to be able to play again today!!!! Today's FS is Angela R, aka Angela Rivera - and what a fabulous gallery she has!! After spending time checking out her amazing cards I finally landed on this beauty: {AngelaÂ’s Beautiful Sunflower Card}
Angela's card is so bright and cheerful, and I had initially planned to use a warm orange/rust DSP on my card, but somewhere along the way the creative process took me into a different direction when I flipped the DSP and liked the blue/green color so much better. Funny how that happens sometimes LOL!! Other changes were with the doily and spellbinders layers, added butterflies, changed sentiment to main image, added gems and ribbon. Kept basic sketch except without the window box.
Angela - it was a pleasure spending time in your gallery and thank you for sharing your talent for making beautiful cards!!!
Had a couple of butterflies left over from yesterday's card so decided to use them. Also used my 18K Gold Leafing pen again - I love this pen!!
This card is also for a very special coworker in our Savannah GA office, as a Thank You for all that she does.
Thanks everyone for taking a peek.
Hugs!
Audrey

I definitely need to get a gold leafing pen! This is gorgeous. Love the die cutz, bling, papers, butterflies, bling - and the sentiment. Did I mention the bling on this is beautiful? Wow - this is a total Wow card. Wonderfully creative case. Impressive stuff Audzi. Hugz!

Mercy Audzie!!! I don't even know where to begin...."excellence on paper" even seems inadequate. Your design is beyond fab, and those butterflies deserve an academy award for this show! Love-love-love every gorgeous inch. Hugz....
