I named this card stress relief, because it was great to work on this card and escape my stress. I made coffee filter flowers. I used the last 2 technique lovers challenges techniques on this card.It was what I call a MORON card because I kept adding a little more on. It took me about 3 hrs to make this card, but they were well spent therapy!!

Your description made me chuckle....loved the MORON reference! Hope things are going better, MariLynn. A lovely card with the layers in sync. AND that butterfly looks like you captured the real deal and put it on your card....GORGEOUS!!

Your card is pretty MariLynn!! I like the way you used the technique from this week. The sewing is nice too. It's nice to have the hobby of stamping to de-stress us.
