I know a few people (hi Janna) have been wondering where my That was then, this is now posts have been so I thought I better get one done. Just too many stamps and not enough time! LOL!
I don't know what I was thinking with this card. I think I was trying embossing but not sure.
That was then......

Wow, Danni! I actually love your first one (I've never been very good at embossing, but I think you did a great job). But your second card is just stunning! Love the sparkle and the design paper, just gorgeous! :)

Wow, what a difference! The first one is nice, but I love the 2nd one. The sparkle, the patterned paper - it all ties together so nicely.

Wow, you have come such a long way with your talent. The first one is good, but the second is Wow.
I found a few of the cards that I made when first starting, maybe I should try one or two of these little now and then postings.
