My card for the CAS96 challenge. The challenge was to use a bow; I hope a knot will suffice.
My original intentions were just to use the image and the sentiment. But while sponging the background color, some of it ended up where the knot is...
I stamped the image in embossing ink, embossed with white detail powder. After masking the outside edges of the image, I sponged distress inks for my sky.
My first time ever combining 2 challenges - serendipitous!

Beautiful! Sometimes mistakes are a blessing and yours had you add coordinating ribbon and a knot bow placed in the perfect spot for balance along with covering up the stray ink. Love the colour combination, sponging and layout. Well done!

Outstanding! Your card is equally as lovely as the one you cased. I don't have that stamp, but added to my wish list. But, I have another stamp in mind in the meanwhile. Thanks for the inspiration!
