I kept Karen's basic layout and color combination. I added some stamping to the main panel, changed the bird to a butterfly and changed the ribbon treatment. Ooops, just noticed I forgot the white gel pen dots..I'll have to add those! I added some linen bg in sahara and a baroque motifs swirl in blushing bride to the main panel along with some liquid pearls in the corner. The butterfly is stamped twice and the wing cut out and layered over the bottom image. I thought this would make a sweet vintage baby card for the shower I'm going to tomorrow.
Congrats, Queen Karen! May you enjoy your special week!

Oh my gosh, this is SO gorgeous!!! I love the little bit of distressing you've done, and the slight bit of sponging. You have made Karen proud with this as a case.
