I looked thru THIS AWESOME GALLERY.....and saw all that style that I DREAM of, that CAS look, I love every card IN her gallery - but I chose to case this one:
I kept the sunflower theme, (LOVE sunflowers) but changed the die, the dp, and changed the leaves to ribbon.....however, I like hers alot better. I think I lost something in the translation. I struggle so much with CAS....I dont' even COPY CAS well. I had to restrain myself from texturing the bottom of this card, reminding myself that it is the simplicity of her card that draws me to it. I'm a whack job when it comes to stamping. Happy Sunday everyone. Gotta run to church now, not walk, so I'll be back to comment later.

Awesome looking card! Love the touch of green ribbon, the dp is perfect, and the little peek inside looks fabulous too! Nice bit of texture with the swiss dot folder too!

I have to start by saying that as I was getting ready to comment my DH saw the card on the monitor and said "That's a nice card!" No wonder he's a keeper - he has very good taste!
I too love sunflowers but never thought to use a kraft color with them. Well ... I have kraft cs and lots of sunflower stamps so that will change!
Your ribbon leaves are great and look fun to CASE.
