Some of the earliest challenges that I played on SCS were the color challenges. The hostess Betty aka gbedwrite would create samples so amazing that I was too intimidated to even comment! In order to CASE Betty I paraphrased the question WWJD. Betty always seems to use multiple DP patterns, wonderful layouts, pearl flourishes and sumptuous bows. She will often use Flourishes stamps and I will be forever grateful to her for introducing me to those wonderful images. Everything comes together in an elegant and beautiful creation that I know I'll never be able to replicate. I did try though, and chose this card to CASE: Happy Fall! by gbedwright at Splitcoaststampers
Kept the layout but changed the image to Flourishes Magnolias, changed the colors and DP's, changed the frame and added the pearl flourish and butterfly. The last addition qualifies this for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge #167, details on the Flourishes blog. PT - 3
Betty, enjoy your week as Queen. Thanks you all so much for looking and have a peaceful day.

Marzi this is just gorgeous. I love your tribute to Queen Betty. I too wanted to have one of those fantastic bows, but since I am so bow challenged, I kept it simple.
