This is the first time I've used True Friend, and the Apple Cider dp. My changes:
For the large medallion I used detail copper EP and colored the "petals" with a blender pen and River Rock ink. I also layered it onto Close to Cocoa and trimmed around close for a border.
Faux stitching using All In a Row (Beate's influence) and copper brads.
River Rock stitched ribbon (I don't have the Wasabi - yet!)
For the sentiments I used Craft Close to Cocoa and embossed with detail clear EP.
I moved the ribbon down to cover up a boo-boo I made when stamping the faux stitches. I should have practiced first!

Wow! This is so pretty! Let's see...where is my True Friends set that I needed so badly? I love where you placed the ribbon and the River Rock is a nice color for this that doesn't steal the show. I appreciate the link to your inspiration piece, too. Fabulous work, as always, Linda!
