I was inspired to try something "outside the box" and created this "shadowbox" card. :)
Overall, I was pleased with the results... although one of the flower petals had that black central smudge. :( But I wasn't about to start over. I guess nobody's perfect, eh?!
Here's a side view so you can see the "dimensional" effect. :)

cute card, you need to take the smudge part out because you really can't tell it unless you say it. lol
Looks great Ted. I would have never noticed the smudge wasn't supposed to be there if you hadn't said so. Great color choices too.
Hi Ted. Love the card, the colors and design work so well together. I'm with the others. I had to go looking for the smudge after you mentioned it.
