TLC206 - If Friends Were Flowers

After coming down with something last Wednesday (I blame shoveling an icy driveway in the rain...lol), it was good to get to stamp again! I was SO close to being able to finish all 9 of the Taylored Expression Challenges, and then I felt like death warmed over and stamping was the last thing on my mind! Better luck next time, eh? :) On the plus side, I was one of the random winners of the $10 Taylored Expressions gift certificates. How fun is that?!



I made this card for the Technique Lover's Challenge (TLC206) on SCS. You can find details of the challenge here. It was a little trickier than I thought it would be, but the end result (recessed frame) is very fun. The instructions call for a 2 1/4" square, but I enlarged mine to 3"... I think the hardest part was cutting out the 3" square on my layers so they would line up properly when assembled. I was going to add some ribbon, but totally spaced out and forgot until my layers were adhered together, by then I was like forget it, it's done! LOL
