Love that flourishes Val ,and the colour combo (and see that you have managed to team it up with a co-ordinating flourish paper to stand it on !:-D)x
A really beautiful well proportioned card Val.
I love the flourish stamps you used and the liquid pearls give such a pretty look to your flower. Perfect for the challenge at LIM.
You asked how l designed my flowers. I use a plain round rolled flower and then spend ages tweaking it in Silhouette Studio. I still need to tweak it a bit more though xx
Another lovely card Val, it was our daughter Luisa's 40th birthday party yesterday and the sun shone:)Viv xx

Valerie, we're has almost 16 inches of rain in about 36 hours! Lots of flooding in downtown Pensacola. Thankfully, we live at a more elevated level and haven't have any flooding here...but the road to our house from one direction has been closed due to the flooding. It always floods there as the little creek just can't move the water fast enough. LOVE your card...especially all the little pearls you've added. You asked if I was making a wedding album for my granddaughter. I'll be scrapping lots of the wedding photos I took, but I rarely make a special album for anyone. I figure my children/grandchildren can fight over my scrapbooks long after I'm gone! :)
Hi Valerie, Your card's gorgeous! It's shabby chic and I love it!!I'm with you on penquins, they are so funny. I was lucky enough to actually visit the colony on Philip Island a few years ago, they have stands built to house the spectators and you walk through the nesting grounds to get to the beach where the little fat penguins climb out of the sea with their full bellies. One little guy had eaten so much he couldn't get out of the surf, it was hilarious. What you don't see on TV is the dreadful smell LOL Have a great week my friend, hugs Gay xxx
I love the way you've put your flourishes 'behind' the label Val and that flower is gorgeous! Vicky x
So pretty. Love the colours. x
Very pretty!
