Hello, Finally...had to work late today!!! RATZOLA!
Here is my card finally but I'm not very happy with it. It does NOT look like it did in my mind!! I want that one but I can't get it out of there...Heehee! Now it has slipped away somewhere in the great unknown recesses of the brain!
I made the star quilt and then cut it in half (almost).
tried to dye the lace but most of it rinsed out. so anyway...here it tis! The bg paper is called shell, it is sort of a very light gray with a green tinge.
Thanks for looking!

What gorgeous layers, Robin! I love how you mixed and matched the papers so beautifully! No clue why you are not happy with this but I just LOVE it! This is such a wonderful way to use the die too!

This is incredible, Robin. I can't believe what you've done with this sketch. Everything is just so perfect and lovely. WOW, you really took this challenge to heart even if did have to work late. Love your new word ... ratzola. I'll have to remember that.

This is just so pretty Robin. I love the quilt die (it and its little friends have been ordered and are on their away across the Pacific at the moment - can't wait for them to arrive). The combination of design papers is just brilliant. What an inspiration.

Gorgeous! Love the quilt look. What a beautiful verse. The colors and patterns combine so nicely. Love the cute bow. Great card. If you don't like it, you can send it to me. I love it! TFS

It is frustrating when the card in your mind doesn't come to fruition. I love how this one looks. I love the colors and the lace. Maybe after dreaming tonight, it will all come back to you and you can make the card you were thinking about at a later time.
