This will be a short and sweet post... today is my last working day of 2011 and so far I'm running a bit behind. Perhaps I should make a resolution about better time management in 2012, LOL! ;)
Something about this card turned out kinda dark but I'm still diggin' it. I used one of the Pergamano flower girls and just trimmed her out from her surrounding flowers so that she could sit on the ribbon. She looks a little lonely so I'm thinking this could work as a sympathy or "cheer up" kind of card. I was even feeling all crafty like by making some coordinating rolled roses out of the reverse side of the black text paper.
Alrighty, well I suppose I should go do the hair and make-up thing. Have a great weekend everybody!

I love it. So pretty and soft looking. The flowers rock!
Oh Amy, I love everything about this card: the colour combo, layout, flowers. Always wonder, though, how those flowers will cope in the envelope, lol.
I know what you mean about time management. I could do with a lot of improvement in that area. As a freelance translator sitting at my computer all day, I find it quite a challenge to separate work and pleasure.
Have a great weekend!
Awww! what a gorgeous card. She does look a little sad there, but I love the whole look you've created. Your paper roses look stunning.
Wishing you a very Happy New Year.
Love, Andrea xx
