A simple looking, but time consuming card, as I had to try three different ways to get the color to look right on the embossed flowers. Label cut with SCAL, ladybugs punched with regular paper punch.

Embossed flowers??? Holy cow girl! That is amazing! I can see why this took so much time! It rocks...I love the little ladybugs almost in flight with their winds spread! It reminds me of all the times, a ladybug is on something close by and you try to get him on your finger and just as you think its gonna happen, off they go! Giggle! This is a wonderful card for Julie, I betcha it is amazing in real life! Very nicely done Janice!!

It was worth persevering, as the embossed background looks really great. Mind you, I'm sure either of the earlier attempts probably looked pretty good too. The label shape with the sentiment is just sweet.
