Stacey's Curtain Call Act 3

act3 Aren't these some lovely inspirational colors?  This is the rose that Stacey received when she won one of the Rising Star awards at the recent Stampin' Up! convention!  What a wonderful way to remember that special event!  I was intrigued by the colors, but you know how you plan a card in your head, and it turns out totally different?  Well, that's what happened here!  Still intriguing, but not quite how I envisioned it:

You can see the other creations, as well as Stacey's, here.  It also uses the sketch from Stamping 411 shown here:

ssc115 and AFTER stamping my card, I realized I did not stay completely true to the sketch!  Ooops, sorry!  Well, it's the inspiration that counts! 

 

I also wanted to share a pretty card I got from my friend Shawn:

  7. These are both fabulous, LeAnne! I love the way you used the ovals on the first one, and the one for the PCP sketch is awesome!

  8. I still re-run my yearly 9/11 tribute post to my husband and all firefighters. It still has all the ORIGINAL comments from my readers and you are there. It's kind of a trip down memory lane for all of us, and I invite readers to continue to leave comments, year after year, as a type of "blogger reunion".
