This is for two challenges: Featured Stamper for Michele G's amazing gallery and the CAS Challenge All About L.O.V.E. As I looked through Michele's gallery, I had a long list of possibilities. Loved it! I know I'll be back again for inspiration. I finally picked this card because it reminded me of the Garden Collage stamp set.
I really liked how Michele positioned the panel in the upper corner and allowed the corner embossing to show as much as possible. I also used a corner EF but changed the square to an oval and placed it up in the corner more than the center. I love Michele's colors. To change it up for the CASE, I added yellow to the butterfly and made the flower orange. I used chalk and blender pen on the background. Although I love her crisp edges, this collage stamp seems to beg for distressed edges. I sponged around the edges instead of using a mat. I added some velvet ribbon which is the only thing that is not Stampin' Up. For the Word Play Challenge:
L - layers
O - oval, orange
V - velvet ribbon
E - embossing
Fun and inspiring challenges. Thanks for looking!

Thank you so much for casing one of my cards. I love that stamp but have been unable to purchase it here in the UK but the Penny Black one reminded me of it and that's why I bought it , so how funny that you used it for your case! Your card is beautiful - lovely soft colouring. I'm so excited to be this weeks FS. Thanks again xx
