Good morning! And it's early - I am sitting here wide awake at 2:24 AM. After two hours of staring at the ceiling and NOT sleeping I decided to get up and do something for a little while, so how about a post? This is followed by a disclaimer that anything I say may be prone to be a wee bit punchy. I may even have to laugh at my own jokes since everyone is asleep! (Ahh, what a blissful thought. Elusive sleep.) Has this ever happened to you?
I know you're here for the card, here it is!
These delicate colors were hard to photograph, but they are so pretty IRL. I stamped the flower and embossed it in white on Pretty in Pink card stock, then snipped it and popped it on a dimensional. The flourish background and the sentiment (from the Perfectly Penned set) were also embossed. Coloring with a Crumb Cake marker added some definition to the flourishes. I inked the sides of the panel with the white craft inkpad.
The Creative Elements set is one I'm going to use again and again! I love it's versatility and classic elegance.
I'm off to try to dream of a sparkling new morning.....

If I only knew! I too have been awake staring at the ceiling from about 1-3AM we could have chatted! I'm glad you put those hours to good use. Your card looks fantastic. I just love that set! Your flourish looks great!
