Birthday card for my friend Monica (who is married to James) She was quite tickled to hear what I called this card.
Image is from American Art Stamp and is watercolored and paper pieced. The background was made using foliage from Rubbernecker's Kittie Kits and the roses were made using this tutorial, and the frame was stitched in Kokirose fashion.
Thanks for looking!

Well, I thought this might be for your other half?
For an upcoming Anniversary? Guess I was wrong.
However, it's a beautiful birthday card for your friend too!
LOVE the black tulle and frames!
I have this stamp, but I don't think I could CASE you even if I tried!

What a gorgeous - and very ROMANTIC - looking card - awesome choice of colors and of course, that awesome floral ovals die - love the Kittie kit touches of the leaves and blooms surrounding the lovers hiding beneath the popped up umbrella! I am sure Monica will be thrilled to receive such a loving card - you put your whole heart into this one - now isn't that just like you!!! LYMI!
