Congratulations to Irene, Dandi93, for being QFTD! I am honoring you with a CASE of this card. CAS Sharing Lives by DandI93 at Splitcoaststampers I used the same basic color (althought it shows like blue, ist is really Baja Breeze) I kept the same basic design just flipped it sideways. I stamped flowers instead of using primas, and I change the shape of that panel. I tried to use a simalar EB folder and boarder. You have a wonderful gallery, and while I was there I printed off several more cards to CASE! Also, I combined the flowers or fruit from my garden (even photograped in my flowers!) and the Saturday inspiration with this Gabby belt buckle at Frankie & Julies's.http://www.frankieandjulie.com/shop/...roducts_id=578
I am going to use this for a sympathy card. Thank you for looking.

Very pretty card! And please take no offense, but I really love the purple flowers!! What are they? They kind of look like a straw flower that isn't dried yet. They do steal the show here.
I would be cutting a flower off and seeing how the petals work with some yellow or orange using the smashed flower technique from several weeks ago.

So pretty, love how you used the different colors in the flowers and placed the pearls in the centers and around the oval..... What a beautiful way to photograph your card, it really makes the card pop, thank you for joining in the fun, hugs, Irene

The simplicity of this sympathy card is so touching - the soft blue conveys peace and the lovely pearl centered flowers and butterfly show your compassion!! Loving that fleur de lis border as well!! Sure to be very gratefully received - a beautiful case of Irene's teal beauty!! TFS
