I took me HOURS again just looking at all Mutnik's ARTWORK!
First, I was going to CASE Edna (Oh cabana boy...).
Second, I thought about the 3 beauty shop girls.
Third, was the nice wheels card.
Fourth, was Bessie chewing her cud.
Fifth, was the you said stripes right zebra card.
This is the one I FINALLY decided on:
"Delight in Life".
So sorry, I don't know how to do the link thingy here for you to view Cathy's card.
Maybe Mutnik will "WIN" again and I can do one of the other choices I had. If not, maybe I will just make them anyway, LOL!
Things I changed:
Flower Image
Ribbon Treatment
Left off the Sentiment
Switched sides with ribbon and flower image.
Added a couple of extra layers.
Made mine black and white-no color.
HONESTLY, I really did do all the above, but when I saw this card of Cathy's, it was so much like one I made for my shoebox club in February, I just decided to post this one and thus saved me a LOT of time tonight. Is this ALLOWED? It is AMAZING how similar they really are!

Gorgeous, and very much done in Mutnik style! Love that stamp - it's very versatile. Looks awesome in black and white, and you could color it in soft pastels or wild, zany colors according to the mood of the day. I know what you mean about perusing Mutnik's gallery... I have a huge list of her cards I will eventually CASE.

Celisa, this is gorgeous! I love your black and white version. Funny thing about my card, I made it for and older couple's anniversary. I put it in a book in my car so when I was to see them, I could give it to them. This was over a year ago and it's still in my book. How sad. Think I might just mail it to them for this years anniversary. hehe Thanks so much for playing! Love your card. TFS :0)

Celisa, of course, it's okay to use a card you've previously made. Let's face it, I wish that could happen to me everytime I decide to join in a challenge. That's called a plan, and we definitely love it when our plan comes together. Your card if fabulous, dahling!
