TLC339 - CASing Iris

Photo Details

Poster: BarbieP

Today's new technique challenge was to go back and CASE the very first card we ever FAVed. This is the card I cased out of Iris' wonderful gallery:

Pink Iris by iris at Splitcoaststampers

I changed the color scheme, the image, and the sentiment. I also embossed the background panel, but kept everything else the same. Rather than embossing and watercoloring the image, I decided to do the chalkboard technique. I have not done that in quite a while.

This challenge is going to inspire me to go back and case many of the other wonderful cards I have FAVed. TFL and let me know what you think.

A beautiful CASE, Barb. I like your image and the yellow, embossed bg. Your card is as beautiful as Iris'.
