I really loved the soft blues and greens in this picture for Beate's inspiration challenge this week. I immediately picked out some embellishments and thought the card would come together in a snap.
Boy, was I wrong! For some reason this card gave me fits. I tried several variations of it last night, all of which ended up in the trash.
I set it aside and figured I would sleep on my ideas. Well, tonight nothing had changed. I tried and tried and just got sick of fiddling with it, so this is what I finally ended up with. Sorry, Beate. I love you, but this challenge almost killed me!
