Howdy, howdy! Thanks for all the well wishes. My knee is feeling better, not quite there but almost. In the interim I sat in the studio this morning to make a card. It started out being simple and took on a life of it’s own. That’s the beauty of creating, right? For this one I picked an excellent, inspiring sentiment from Quietfire Design called As You Dream. I thought the sentiment was so pretty it could be used for a bride to congratulate on a pending marriage or even as a congrats afterward. With different decor it could go to the lucky couple and with yet different decor it could go to the graduate.
I stayed with two colors white and one sheet of double sided card stock from American Crafts. My focal medallion begins with Spellbinders™ Labels Thirteen onto which I’ve layered Spellbinders™ Big Scalloped Ovals LG and Spellbinders™ Classic Ovals SM. I love the companion pieces that come with all the Spellbinders Pendants and on the upper side of the oval I used one of the companion pieces from Spellbinders™ In Spades Pendant. Along the bottom of the card I pieced together several of the companion pieces from Spellbinders™ Renaissance Hearts Pendant to make the border through which I threaded my ribbon.

I am speechless! This is SO BEAUTIFUL! I am so glad I got another Becca-fix before I go on vacation for a week! You are AMAZING GIRL!
Did you hear that gasp? Spectacular and awesome are just a few words I could think of. This is tugging at me as I have to make 7 wedding cards between July 17th and October 16th and I still have 3 to design. This will definitely insire me. Thank you ever-so-much for sharing all of you artistic endeavours.
So glad to hear your knee is feeling better :D I had to chuckle at your saying you started out wanting to make something simple because I’m not sure that belongs in your card making vocabulary ;-) This is beautiful. It never ceases to amaze me how many little details you can add and how you layer things so wonderfully.
Wow! Another simply gorgeous creation!
I’ve learned so much and have grown in my creative ability due to your blog. Thank you for sharing your talent. It never ceases to amaze me.
Absolutely beautiful!!
Becca,
I think I’ve just about run out ways to describe your work. It’s always beautiful. You are most definitely a very talented woman.
Becca,
Your work is truly inspiring. Every time I see a new card I get ideas on how to use the Spellbinders. Thanks for sharing your wonderful work with us. And glad to hear your knee is a little better.
So beautiful. I simply love your cards. This one is so exquisite. All the details are beautiful together.
Becca, I am always amazed at the beauty of your cards. Your talent is truly inspirational and inspired from above.
This looks good enough to eat! Just stunning.
I love the labels dies – I hope that I get #13 in my kit next week – and the large scallops – and – and – well, you get the idea!
Your card is lovely. The layers blend so beautifully. The detailing is incredible.
Oh Becca, This card is so gorgeous! You always make the most astounishingly beautiful cards! I love every single card you have ever shown us. Thanks so much for sharing that heavenly, God given talent with all of us. Glad to hear the knee is feeling better. I have a request and I think I have seen others make the same request. Please, please, please, tell us WHERE you have gotten the CD cases for your Spellbinder’s storage system!!! Thank you so much for all you share!
I thought I’d bookmarked your blog before only to discover that I hadn’t. It took me quite some time to find you again because I couldn’t for the life of me remember your name. I did however remember your face, “about Becca” and the beautiful cards I’d seen. Well, now that I’ve found you, I won’t lose you again. As soon as I’m done here, I’m going to become a follower. I can only dream of being as creative as you are. Maybe when I grow up!
Hi Becca

This is a gorgeous card, but I have to ask how thick is it? and would it fit in an envelope?
