Lydia Fielder(understandblue) was selected by Cindy Couttes(ky southern belle) as the Featured Stamper for the week. Lydia does TREMENDOUS work for the SCS website. She also creates TREMENDOUSLY creative cards....her huge gallery is filled with them.
I started out with the BEST of intentions to CASE THIS CARD. Something happened between there and here and things didn't fall together as planned. Because her monkier is "understandblue", I wanted to do a BLUE card. Her name is no joke.....I found it very difficult to get blues that went together nicely from what I have on hand. My image was bigger...another problem, yada yada yada. When I was done, I felt it needed the sentiment(Such is Life) that I used to sum up the whole experience!! I have great respect for Lydia and her blues! : )
Congratulations, Lydia......and thanks for all that you do!!

HA - I love your journey description - isn't it funny how much goes into our final projects? I adore these deep blues and the Eiffel tower is one of my fave images - I probably have 20 of them! THank you for a gorgeous tribute!

Well, this is a fantastic inspired card. Even if you did use a totally different color & images, I can see the spirit of her original card with the sentiment banner and the vintage images!
