What a wonderful challenge Bridget. My large mat of Gumball Green is embossed using the square lattice folder and adhered to Gumball Green as my cb. My long strips of dp are matte on Smoky Slate. My sentiment is stamped and matted in Island Indigo and then popped over my ribbon. I made this card in honor of my DH, because he not only has stood by me for going on 43 years...but never waivered in his love and support when I was going through some extremely stressful years at work before I retired. He is literally my rock and has showed me how to weather the storm while remaining calm. TFL ladies.

That is so sweet! I love your card. The color combo is wonderful, the sentiment is perfect, and such a pretty design.

What a beautiful tribute to your DH, Mary - you are truly blessed to have had his faithful love through good times and bad! I LOVE these colours and the gorgeous dp that picks up on them in the bg....those panels layered are fabulous! Thanks for sharing your art and your heart in this challenge!
