This is my card for CC534. Peggy is our hostess and she chose pool party, wisteria wonder and blackberry bliss as her color palette. Dessert is to use stars. I passed on the dessert this week.
The background dsp is from the Stampin'-Up "park lane" collection. I used a Cuttlebug folder on the blackberry bliss strip.
My flower is from the Verve set "be blessed". I stamped and cut it 2x for a bit more dimension on my card. I won this set in a recent MojoMonday contest. It is cut with the matching petal points die.
The sentiment is from the same Verve set. I am sendingthis off to a friend of mine who has stood by my side over the past year.
Finished my card by adding some sequins. Hope you can play along with us this week.

I love everything about this pretty card, but my favorite part is that amazing sentiment. How very lovely, and how perfect as a thank you to your friend. She must be a special person!

I can't think of a more wonderful thing to say to a dear friend than the sentiment on your card. Very touching. This is a beautiful card, Mary. Love how the Pool Party is a mere accent. Very lovely!

Lovely use of pattern and texture in the blackberry panels, Mary, and that sentiment is out of this world fabulous - I may NEED that! Your friend will be moved by this card (I was!).
