It was such a sweet little cheery card, AND I had the exact paper! Anyway, this card turned out to be an experiment in disaster! After I got my image colored, I cut it out with a nestie, but it slipped and was off center...so I did a little creative camouflaging with the Itty Bitty Background stamp set. Then, I thought things were going well again....got it all assembled, photographed, and ready to upload when I realized I did not do any paper piercing. I struggled with that decision for a minute, then my OCD side won out and I took it apart and paper pierced the squares and used my white gel pen... which turned out to be having major issues today and looked very streaky. You do NOT want to see the after photo of THAT! So, I am sending you the original photo I did and the moral of the story is....once it is put together....LEAVE IT ALONE! Have a great day!

Ouch, I think we've all had days like that. At least I've had plenty of them. It's a great card. I like the layout and the colors. I agree with GardenDiva - tell your OCD to take a hike.

Dispite all your trials, your card turned out really beautiful! I love that image with the dp. It is so summery. Great camouflage!
Your story gave me a chuckle, as I have been through those kinds of issues too.

Tee-hee, at least you got before photos! I'm afraid all of us have tried to "fix" a perfectly good card and rendered it useless. Katie you are rockin' this place! This is such a wonderful CASE card - I love the circle/image changes that you made and the whole look of this beauty. TFS
