This is my first attempt.  Really struggled and hope to improved each time.  I needed a beach themed wedding card - poor bride gets my first attempt.  Her hair color was difficult as hers is not blond but not white either.  I'm just proud of myself for actually trying.  I think I'm hooked.

Frustration Cover Plate Floral

This card is the result of an all day frustration with the Bold Borders:  Wave Die not cutting all the way through and about 200  tries (exaggeration).  One of those almost in tears days.  It would only emboss.  I even got out the Gemini Manual (now that's bad).  Therefore, I decided to blend distress oxide inks over the embossed area.  I am really mad at this card - better be careful who I send it to - bad juju or something!
