What gorgeous inkiness Carol, the blend of background colours are beautiful and the subtle crackle all lend to the lovely feel, then that pretty dimensional flower. It's lovely to see you at Stamping Sensations and Allsorts, many thanks for joining in at both.

Carol, this is just gorgeous! I'm loving the cards you've shared while the printer is out of commission! The dimension of this beautiful flower is awesome and the glossy accents on the dewdrops is just a marvelous texture. Love the background with the crackled look and the script behind the lovely flower. Nice shades of turquoise, violet and yellow too. This must be one of your best yet (yes, I do always say that!) TFS & Hugs
