    If this is a reject, then I might as well give up, no way could I make something as gorgeous.

    Hi Maria,
    well I am in the same boat with Maggie, I would love to have made it, so pleased to have received it and desperately need to know why you put this aside for reject status? To me it is Shabby Chic meets Steampunk and I love it. Well if you really can't get on with it, I believe you could offer it as candy and your followers would definitely enter for it.
    All the praise aside, I think we all have been there though; sometimes a card just doesn't seem right to us yet others will say its perfect. Maybe as crafters, we become too critical or maybe it depends on our mood that day, who knows. One thing I do know though, we love your work and are very grateful when you share your less favourable creations with us also.
    Hope you are well and having a good week.
    All the best Linda

    This is a nice card Maria, you are obviously a perfectionist and set your standards extremely high

    Maria if that is a reject I am giving up, although I have just ordered over £500 worth of stamps & inks ( I think, it was first ordered before I left for the US) from Clarity. Now I will have to buy a new unit from storage4crafts.com instead of just browsing the catalogue.
