Another save for Sabrina's Rescue from the bin challenge (Rescue the Perishing is her prettier title). I made this panel a few weeks ago and stamped the thank you and the script font crooked so it was laying in my trash pile. To save it, I recut it at an angle so the stamping didn't look so crooked. I also had to sponge it darker as the font was messed up at the top. The panel had to be trimmed down a lot to do that and the Thank You is on the very edge but I kind of like that. A few glittery dragonflies and now I love it.
Thanks again, Sabrina.

This is an excellent save. I like how you've mounted it with a lot of white on the edge. Crooked stamping is behind a lot of my rejects, too. When I first started stamping, I knew someone who always intentionally stamped things at an angle just so she didn't have to worry about whether it was straight. Any time I stamp something crooked I wonder if I should adopt that habit.

Nancy, reading your details I would say this is a fabulous ‘save’! I really love this design and it looks like the sentiment should always have been where it’s placed!

Gorgeous! I wish I had mistakes like this to save what made such an outstanding design. Inking is fabulous. The framing, headline, and dragonflies are amazing...

Nancy had you not said this was rescued I would never have known. It’s another gorgeous dragonfly card. Happy day and hugs
