To celebrate Viv's featured stamper status, I combined a couple of cards. I really liked this styling: Design seeds card by Daizy-Mae at Splitcoaststampers, but also this one: Fern card by Daizy-Mae at Splitcoaststampers. When I tried to do the bg freehand, i tossed it, and my ordered brain had to find a similar but different way, so I did my lines inside the confines of the deckle nestie cause I just roll like that and struggled with the bit of bleeding outside the edges;) i stamped my sentiment and cut one design from an acrylic repeat border stamp that I seldom use and dressed up the sentiment and balance a bit. I finished by adding tiny drops of glossy accents by Ranger to my fern leaf for a little dew kissed effect for the CAS water theme.

Michele, just how much do you think I love this card....a LOT. What a beautiful fern with the dewdrops and the sentiment is just lovely with the added images at the top and bottom. Great job with both challenges.

Wow this beautiful. I love the "water droplets" on your leaves. You did such a great job combining these two inspirational cards from Viv's gallery and then to top it off you got the CAS challenge in there too.....way to go;)
Oh this is beautiful. I love that sentiment. Really my favorite kind of cards to make are with sentiments as the focus. Your fern looks lovely on it. It's so delicate looking. Great job!
