Don't try to adjust your monitor or your glasses, it is double the joy here today with my Wordsworth image! Think for a minute the last time you inked up a stamp and thought you had a good impression, then pick it up and half of the ink is still on the stamp??? Would a stamp a ma thingy help in that case, does anyone know????? Well, I laid it back down on near as I could see to finish and what you see is the slight off kilter quote!
Thanks Faith for the sketch. I stayed true to your design. And I thought pairing the Browning quote with the Da Vinci painting would be worth a chuckle. I mean think about it, it took him 16 years to complete...wouldn't your smile be off kilter....

I love the pairing of this sentiment with Mona Lisa - maybe living wildly and joyfully was the secret she was hiding behind her enigmatic smile! And I thought the double image sentiment was intentional, it almost looks 3-D! Once again, a very creative card - love it!
I thought the shadow behind the sentiment was deliberate too - makes sense to me and adds to the fun. This is such a great card to wake up to this morning, the element of a great masterpiece resting upon the background of fun, modern colors and shapes was totally unexpected - woke me up and made me think!

Had me chuckling here, Susan!! That girl must have had the patience of Job!
Your shadowed sentiment looks sensational. When I drop a stamp, you know it!

You just created what I tried to a couple of weeks ago on a challenge and couldn't! Isn't that the way it goes...the best things come when you don't expect them!

Three masters all on one card, is that not sensational?
Browning, Da Vinci, and Susan!!! You are the master who coordinated these together and what a masterful way you combined these fabulous papers and patterns. And you showed the skills of a fine artist who knows how to make use of the little mishaps. Love your cards, always.
