I like the contrast of the different sizes in a line.<br /><br />I feel about Glorious Green (which I call "gag me green") the way you do about orchid opulence. No matter how hard I try, I cannot use that color. I still have the origial 3 sheets of cardstock that came in the multi-pack I bought in 2004. And the ink spot and marker are unopened. I don't know why I hold on to them. I keep thinking I will change my mind about the color and want to use it. Nope. I guess now that they are going to retire I can feel ok about letting them go.<br /><br />Here's a reciprocal challenge for you. If you use fairy vomit on one of your cards, I will use gag me green on one of mine!Susan (peebsmama)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04685117319252711640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-90840360862439314732010-04-08T15:50:40.707-04:002010-04-08T15:50:40.707-04:00Stunning!

On my other blog (Questioning my Intelligence), I actually did comment on Butler, and I've come back and edited my big bold Duke Blue letters to include them, too. Honestyly, if Duke had lost, I wouldn't have been too sad. What a wonderful game between two teams with a lot of heart!<br /><br />Blessings,<br />SusanSusan Raihalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03018860599601419989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-58842179568235852242010-04-06T13:13:50.321-04:002010-04-06T13:13:50.321-04:00This card is absolutely stunning.

Thanks for yet another lovely card and simple idea.<br /><br />Now I'm afraid I have to say this. While we seem to be of like minds on so very many things, I knew you'd be cheering for Duke, but I was not. My parents met as students at Butler - during WWII - and I might not be here if it weren't for Butler! So, I understand your giant blue letters and exclamation points, but little Butler gets some blue letters, too, for making those Duke boys really work for it!Susan Onoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-16673112618734641912010-04-06T10:13:51.217-04:002010-04-06T10:13:51.217-04:00By the way, impressrubberstamps.com has really pre...By the way, impressrubberstamps.com has really pretty teensy jewels in 7 colors.

I can't wait to TRY to copy it and see if there's ANY possibility of me producing such precision.<br /><br />Our daughter and I were florists for 13 years. She produced the symmetrical arrangements that had to copy the FTD photos while I did the wildflower-type that didn't require precision.
