Oh, this is absolutely GORGEOUS!!! When color combinations really touch me, it creates a palpable response, and I was SO drawn to the colors you have used, they are just STUNNING!!! Your watercoloring is just lovely, and I will have to see what you used to create this in stamps. Beautiful paper lace, and those turquoise gems just pop. I love this, going into my favorites!
I too love Twinkling H2O's, although I have just used them a few times, they are so lovely here!!! And when I saw you'd used an ODBD stamp, I know which one it is, you have brought it alive, so inspired me!
The green color you used around the card to set up your photo was AMAZING, I really learned a great deal from that--for you made your photo really pop in the photo. I know basically nothing about photographing and am eager to learn anything at all... Sorry this is so long!

Great work! I like how you made the "hello" big enough to balance the strip of lace at the top, and your colors are simply delightful!

I love that stamp, Polly, so happy to see you've brought a "butterfly bush" with a twist for Audrey's garden. And the colours are so light and airy, they are definitely happy-making.

Just beautiful! I love the big hello and the pretty painted butterflies. I have this stamp and have not inked it yet! Love the lace too. This is a smile maker!

This one is GORGEOUS! Love the text on the butterfly wings and the soft colors you used on this! Your lace border and dotted background are so perfect! I love it!
