So, I have been hemming and hawing about this card request all week because, its just one of those words fail you things. I finally decided that I just wanted to send Jessica something soft and pretty because, there really are no good words. and I better just finish it so, it can go out in the mail. tfl.

This is beautiful! Yes, words fail sometimes but a beautiful card can say it better than words! Your flowers are gorgeous and the colors are so very soothing. Hugs!

This is such a lovely card, & I think the sentiment is just right.

Oh, I know what you mean, it was so hard to find the "right" words when, really, there are none except what's in our hearts, but getting that on paper...tough. You did a beautiful job with the cherry blossom floral image. Your coloring is so very beautiful and no doubt Jessica will appreciate your gorgeous card.

Yeppers, for me it was so hard to think what to make and even harder to know what sentiment to use and what to write. I think this is beautiful, your pencil work is so soft and adds real detail to the petals.

Yes, I'm with you. It is hard to make a card when there is really nothing you can do or say to make it better. The flowers and colors on this are just lovely. Thanks for coming to the tea party.
