Okay, I know I usually do cute cards - and one could be forgiven if you think that I have taken leave of my senses!!
However, I needed to get a few cards in my stock - and while this one says Happy Birthday - the 3 others I have left blank to be stamped for other occasions. This was kind of fun as it was a departure from my usual fun card. The card looks so much better IRL!!
I could not capture the bling of the rhinestone in the middle of the iris, nor the three rhinesones along the side.
The colours turned out all wrong too -this is mellow moss and lavender lace - but it sure doesn't look like it in the picture, does it!
Thanks for looking - and I have more colourful cards on the go!

oooh don't you just feel the change coming...LOL Really I love your cute style but this is so pretty too. I've made a few cute ones yesterday also. The turtle one still has me in a daze...what was I thinking? I had fun, that's the main thing here.
You're lucky, this hits the jackpot of pretty and elegant too. Good job with the rhinestones Deborah girl! I love it for sure. TFS
