Sometimes I just can't get what's in my head, out through my fingers. It was hard for me to work with these colors. Love the combination, but couldn't wrap my head around them. Sentiment is from the blog Ginger's house (http://gingershouse.blogspot.com/). Roses from Bird's blog cut files (http://www.birdscards.com/). Love how easy they went together and the fact they sit flat on the page. Martha Stewart 'Autumn Branch' or 'Scary Branch' (I've seen both names) itty flowers are Liquid Pearls colored with ink and cardstock pnched with 1/8" punch.

Oh my goodness, this is drop dead gorgeous. The sentiment is so perfect, we just had a conversation the other day about how things happen for a reason. My Alix will love this fabulous card.

Amen to that sentiment! I love the background embossed frame....looks like cast ironwork. I love, love, love those flowers! I can't believe they lie flat on the page, they look so dimensional! I need to check that file.
