My card is for FS203, LeisaJane. I was very anxious to case one of her beautiful cards. Had to wait a bit as I have had family here for several days. They are gone now and things are very quiet. I'll really miss them.
Here is LeisaJane's card:Ribbons and Daisies for Lisa by LeisaJane at Splitcoaststampers Isn't it gorgeous?
I kept the layout, used only some of the colors , different image (my flower is a die cut I sponged while still in the die with Dove Gray ink), used punch for the ric rac, and I forgot to use my embossing folder..drat! Added a brad to my ribbon, some cording, and that's about it.
I also entered these three challenges:
Craft Your Days Away #10 to use punches and/or die cuts-used my Christmas gift zig zag chain punch and Spellbinders Daisy Patch die cut
Creative Craft Challenges-Anything Goes
ColourQ-use Old Olive, Kraft, Basic Gray, Basic Black plus Vanilla and White
LeisaJane, hope you're enjoying your special week as Featured Stamper...love your gallery.

This card is beautiful! I love the green, the cording, and the zig zag punch...all so pretty! You're very sweet to say the things you did about my gallery, but you've always been so kind and generous with your comments. I'm honored to have someone as talented as you to case a card of mine. Thank you so much!!!

Zig Zag border punch??? You knew I would be green with envy over that one and I am. I'll be waiting by the mailbox for one that I know you will send me. This is really an interesting card with neat details. I thought it was mine at first. LOL!!!! Your ribbon treatment is to die for and your image panel is great along with that fantastic cording. You did real good again Benz. Now that family is gone, I'll have to give you a ring in the next couple days especially since I need to make sure you have my correct address to send that border punch!!! LOL!!! TFS! P.S. I was looking at sewing machines today, but no luck - no money!!

Now where on earth do you find a zig zag punch. I have punch envy for sure. I love how it looks like rick rack. If I had that punch, I know I would put some of my punched pieces in some embossing folders to make it look like rick rack....lol Adorable card Benzi.
