Thank You Pear

This pear looked so different in my mind's eye. In retrospect, I should have used a lighter shade of green or a watercolor pencil instead of a marker. What do you think?

First, I stamped my image and sentiment. 

I then sponged the paper and distressed the edges. I colored in the pear with a green marker. 

I adhered this piece to the 2-1/4 x 4 basic black.

I added a slider to my ribbon and adhered it to the DSP panel. I used double sided tape to keep it in place.

I then adhered this panel to the Basic Black card base. I attached the pear panel above the slider using a few glue dots. 

Lastly, I adhered the Whisper White panel to the inside of the card.
