Well first of all I want to say that my thin panel is to the exact dimension requested Roxi! I used part of a Me and Carrie Lou image on it, embossed in gold ep, and watercolored. I used the word imane from natural beauty for my sentiment. I was paralyzed with indecison about bacground papers, nothing seemed to do this image justice, so I kept the panels white tipped with black marker. so not like me, but i love how it turned out. I think I messed up on the second panel size, please no challenge police at my house... thank you roxi for the awesome sketch and teust me it was a challenge to have all those layers... Maybe I copped out by leaving mine white but I do yhink it is quite dramatic. What do you think???

Oh I love it and I think you are right, the white is perfect for the image to stand out and take center stage and it does! It is beautiful how you embossed in gold and the watercoloring is awesome. The black edging on the white makes each panel pop and fulfill it's purpose to direct the eye to your wonderful main event! Gorgeous!

It's absolutely beautiful Nancy! I think the white is very dramatic and looks wonderful with this image. So how are you liking the Me & Carrie Lou stamps?
