I had planned on cutting away the cutwork on the top and two sides to look more like the sketch, but I thought it was too pretty as is. I cut the "s" from the end of the word wishes and attached it to Thank to make Thanks. Dies: SB/Card Creator, MFT/Fish Tail Flag and TL/2014 sentiments

The stencil under the flourish took my eye right away.......love the lacy look you kept by NOT cutting away the sides.

I definitely agree - the dainty doily edges are too pretty to cut away - I like it as it is and it looks great set against that lovely rich brown background.

How I love the look of the stencil and flourish together. So agree about leaving the die with the lacy edges! It adds so much pizzazz to this! What a clever use of your word dies too!

I like the way you use the stencil and make it mimic the swirl shape!
