This is Joyce's card that I chose: My Thanksgiving Card by Cookielady01 at Splitcoaststampers
She had several cards with this basic layout and because it's one of my favorite ones, I kept that and the flower theme. I like a bigger sentiment and something in the corner. Done! Fewer layers, added an embossed wc piece on the left, added a bird.
I had made this collage about 4 years ago, liked it but thought 'I'll never frame it." I'm not flowery, even though I like flowers very much. Fortunately I kept it, thinking I'll use it somehow. I cut out some elements, which are decoupaged napkins on top of the wc background and then decided to add a piece of the background on the side, embossed with an ef. I had stamped some flowers and vines in black, so you can see that in a few places. I like this so much more than the whole finished product and I have some left to make a few more cards. This will probably go to my sister for Valentine's Day.

I love the embossed strip on the left hand side. The sentiment looks great in that font too. I often think the font of the sentiment can make or break the card!! :>)

I absolutely love your collage card and I adore this sentiment. I am still trying to process everything you did to make this beauty- wow! You sure made a fantastic card based on Joyce's gorgeous inspiration card. ~Karen.
