This month all of the Dirty Girls past and present (DD/DDA)were issued a challenge to case one of our first uploads!!!! The purpose is to see a "then and now" to our stamping and cardmaking style. We all have to start somewhere, right? I absolutely love the idea of this challenge. I decided to choose this card because I just used way too much green galore!?!!? Thanks a Bunch
As part of the challenge requirements, we could change three things???? ONLY THREE? LOL!!!
I changed colors for sure!!!! I changed stamp image, and I change embellishments/accessories!!!!
For this card I am using SU chocolate chip, PTI aqua mist, PTI vanilla cream cardstocks. I am also using Basic Gray Marrakech and MB Poppyfinch dps.
I am using the newly release ODBDScripture Collection I set.

Oh, my!! I don't know what to say that hasn't been said already. I soooo love this. So vintage and old fashion. I think it has my name written all over it.

Oh my - this is so rich and gorgeous!!! Love the texture and the details!
I had to giggle at the first card because it looks very much like something I would have made. Pink Passion and Green Galore was my favorite color combo for a long time and I love that stamp set too!

Every element of this card is wonderful, Betty. Love the scriptures on those two new sets.
