I was drawn to the gorgeous colors!!  As soon as I saw this photo I knew I had to use my brand new Vogue Vases set, I thought it was perfect!!  I heat embossed the leaves, colored the flowers and vase separately, cut them out and attached.

    I LOVE how you got down to the core of this with the CAS Lori. It wasn't so easy with all of the fabulous details and possible textures. WTG!

    Love the card layout...demonstrates that not every pix has to be centered.

    That is a great card! It does, however, remind me of an optical illusion as you appear to have many layers, but can't see where the one set ends (under the ribbon I'm sure). Besides being beautiful, it is intriguing and makes you just want to keep looking at it. I really like your ribbon, too. Wonderful work!
