When I made my card for yesterday's challenge, I made a couple more smooched cards with the same inks and stains. I cut my sentiment piece out from one of those.

I love the look of your sentiment panel - what a great idea! That embossing folder is beautiful and the leafy portion looks fantastic under your ribbon and dogwood blossom!

Using a bit of your smooched background for the sentiment is genius! It really brings the focus to that part of the card!
I have a few backgrounds that I only like small pieces of, so now I know what to do with them.

What a lovely card, Brenda, and I really love the ribbon with that gorgeous dogwood blossom. And the color swatch with the sentiment is beautiful against the embossing. Stunning card! Hugs! xoxo
