When I saw Dorothy's card, I immediately knew not only did I have the stamps I wanted to use, but this week's "passionate" colors would work perfectly. The sentiment "live with passion" is from SU's Inspired by Nature. And I thought what better way to use this sentiment than with a lady traveling the world! I flipped the card vertically, used "passionate" colors, and used a bow rather than a brad on my ribbon.
I think I'm going to give this card to my parents, who are 88 years young, and left for Florida today to celebrate a friend's 90th birthday. What a great way to welcome them home - it should be in their mail when they return.
Thanks, Dorothy, for the inspiration; and thanks, Betty, for the passionate color challenge!

STUNNING!!! This card jumps right out of the Gallery - the colors together are striking, the image and sentiment are perfect together, and that ribbon is the perfect touch to make it really special! Wonderful CASE!

Amazing technique. Thanks so much for sharing your talent. I'm almost afraid to try it out, but you've made it look so easy!
