Sometimes the harder I try, the less exact I am. No matter what I did, that sentiment wouldn't stamp straight. And it's a clear stamp!!!!! Then I noticed that I didn't cut the strips of dp quite the same. I do tend toward crookedness.
I clear embossed one of the SU botanical stamps many times for the cracked glass. My border of leaves around the main image is for the technique challenge today. I like this sketch very much. the dp is two sided so I used one side for the main image border and one for the strips.

This is absolutely gorgeous! I am your sister in crookedness; no that sounds wrong... Your sister in misalignment? Ackkk - I can't stamp or mount papers straight to save my life! So, maybe we are cousins...

Wow JK, another card that should be framed! Just gorgeous!
I got news for ya... hand crafted cards should by no means be straight. If I accidentally make a balanced card, I'm throwing it out.
