This is a beautiful card! I really like the sentiment. Retirement cards are so nice to give and some lucky person will really appreciate this one.
I see that this is your first post. Welcome to SCS! I have been following the site for several years for inspiration and I comment on others' cards.
You did a great job listing the products and accessories that you used to make this. That is always appreciated.
Now on to your 2nd card. Looking forward to seeing more of your work! Marti
