Ok here is the card I chose to CASE of Jimmi's -
And here is my version of her AWESOME card! I LOVE this card so much that I didn't want to change it so I kept most of the same elements:Here are the details:
Paper- Chocolate Chip, Certainly Celery and Very Vanilla
Stamp Set- Fabulous Flowers and Much Appreciated
Inks-same as paper
Other- Chocolate chip taffeta ribbon, pearls (pretties kit) sponge
Ok here is what I changed: the colors to Celery and Very Vanilla and kept the Chocolate Chip. I changed the background stamp to En Francais, I changed the brads and eyelets to pearls and I made the flower pop out with four layers and crinkled it. I also change the ribbon and added an extra layer to the base card.
Ok girls have fun with this challenge and if you participate be sure to use code GSGFS05 and link it back here. Happy Stamping!
