This card was sort of a monochromatic prototype for the one I just uploaded for today's MIX challenge. It didn't have the "mix" elements but it does have some circles (the Candi dots, the flower center) so I'm putting it in the Free For All Challenge.
This one is very CAS. I stamped the big bloom, masked it & stamped the writing along one side. The greeting was stamped on little strip and the two left side corners were rounded. I added 2 Candi dots in the upper right for a little balance.
Thanks so much for looking! It's just been posted on my blog along with its sister card for the MIX61 challenge: The Write Stuff

Beautiful little note cards, Julie. You achieved so much depth in your flower and the writing adds a touch of elegance, but the little candi dots bring in the cuteness quotient as well

You are a master of copic coloring! A flower done in browns should look dull and flat, you made it pulse with life and almost leap off the page - I am shaking my head in wonderment at your talent! Great design on the whole card, but the flower steals the show, and rightfully so. TFS!
