I used basically the same layout, changed the dsp, colors, image, added rhinestones and ribbon along with embossing some of the panels and a sentiment. I added crystal effects to the flowers.
I used my Afternoon Tea DSP that Kathy (Wattle) sent me. In fact, Kathy called from Australia (can you believe that - first time I've talked with a real live SCS person and I'm the president of her fan club - LOL!!) while I was working on this card. I was bummed because I found the perfect ribbon match, but it was missing something. That's when I came upon my aqua marine rhinestones and it just seemed to bring it to life thank goodness!!
I used 3 ef's, but you can really only see the Swiss Dots. I used Swirls EF on the horizontal panels and the French Script EF on the rectangular strip. just to give it a little extra.
Thanks so much for taking the time to look and if you have a moment to comment, it would make my day!!

Yikes, I see it didnt take you long to fall back into your old habits! You're back to all those intricate patterns/designs/papers again! This is so wonderful, Pam. The colors are striking together; the design is amazing and the presentation is nothing short of exquisite. Oh, BTW, how fun to talk to Kathy. She has one phenomenal gallery, and she's just as sweet! Fab card, girl!

Pam, this is b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l! The colors are awesome and I can tell you put a lot of work into this card. The rhinestones are perfect. And, to have a call from Wattle...what an honor. Keep on putting out these gorgeous cards!!! I really enjoy viewing them.
