I had some problems with placement because my Circle layer wasnt as large. I like them both very much but the one with one ribbon strip seems a bit more in balance. Thank you "card crazy" for the inspiration.
FYI I used Papier (like the SU Crystal Effects) on the shell after I embossed it with Teal Colorbox so that it gave it some "pop" power. I also started with white brads and used the Teal Colorbox on them with the teal embossing powder that I have. I stamped the shell on the DP background paper also to tie it in. I made six cards and each is a little different as I dtried some different ribbon and placement.

I agree, these colors are beautiful. I'm flattered that I was able to inspire you to make such a gorgeous creation. I really like how you switched the layout to make it your own. Awesome job here!

I really like how you colored and glazed your brads. Your colors and placement layouts look great. Six cards.....wow, you are a stamping dynamo :-) TFS P.S. Your new photo's make your cards even prettier. TFS

This is so beautiful. All the little details add so much... the brads, how they're matted, stamping over the dp... that's one of my favorite things to do ;). It all came together so beautifully!
