Lovely card Carol…those papers are gorgeous xxx

Uschi said...

Beautiful birthday card! I love the way the card is divided into four sections and that you used one patterned paper on one side and a different one on the other. The design in the middle is gorgeous. The die-cut pieces are arranged so nicely. And I love that little bee, which goes perfectly with the flowers.
Hugs, Uschi

The mix of blue patterns is striking, and the four‑panel layout shows them off beautifully. The layered center panel adds such a polished focal point, and the little bee brings a sweet touch of whimsy that ties the whole design together.
