Today we are honoring sweet CAS Alumni hskelly by casing one of her fabulous cards. I chose to case her You are Treasured card because I just recently purchased this Sweet n Sassy stamp set when the Sweet n Sassy booth was at our annual rubber stamping expo and I like Harriet's sketch design.
Things I changed:
1. colors
2. used cardstock instead of ribbon for banners
3. moved sentiment
4. added gemstones
I colored the image with Copic markers, adding turquoise glitter glue to the butterfly's wings and crystal effects to the flower petals.
Congratulations, Harriet, and enjoy viewing all the cards we're casing of yours!

Charlene this is just beautiful!!!!!!!!!! I love the color combo for one thing, but that stunning butterfly sitting on the flower is breathtaking.
