This is so very beautiful! Love the simplicity, yet the richness! And the piercing so very nicely accents the sentiment (as does your beautifully colored violets!) Lovely work!!

You certainly are, Cheryl (such a blessing to me)! I love violets and pansies and sweet peas ... oh who am I kidding, I love all of them. But I especially love the little ones ~ sweet little blossoms. I have a difficult time gardening now because I have such a bad back, but I can enjoy these beautiful plants in a different way now. This card is gorgeous, Cheryl. Your coloring is wonderful too. Looks like a little hint of brown in your leaves (perfect). I like to do that too. Your background paper couldn't have been a better choice. Look how nice it frames those violets! The whole layout is so nicely balanced. Great card and beautifully photographed.
