Karen is hosting this week with some very pretty spring colors. Dessert is your favorite embellishment. Though I like these embellishments VERY much, my faves are the kind you can die cut and pop on your card making it very easy to mail - so I'm not sure these jewels and ribbon count as dessert for me. But I do really like them on this card.
I started the card by making 1st and 2nd generation flowers to see what I preferred and then decided to include them both.
Find your closest colors to these and join us! We would love to see you play along.

this is such a pretty card Chris- love the delicate ink blending behind your die cut card front. I really like the 2 tone flora stamp images and the sentiment is a perfect one for a late birthday card.

Fabulous arrangement. Love the subtle ink blending behind the die-cut panel. I like that sentiment for a delayed birthday card. Lovely touch of ribbon and gems.

I love the cover plate you used for the background panel of this card, Chris. I always look for something special on your cards, and this time I found it on the lovely ombré green panel. Love the sentiment, too. I like to stretch out my "birthday festivals" as long as I can!
