I really struggled with this card today. I liked how the brayered background turned out, and the flower that I coloured ... then I slapped those white things on, thinking they would be a great idea. UGH! Ack! Even a few little sparkles on the tips wasn't bringing it any love! Finally got the inspiration to make up a few leaves and somehow it made it all better. Well ... maybe not ALL, but now I can finally go to bed!

I think it is gorgeous and the leaves are what finishes and completes the scene. Great colors, the white adds interest and balances the ribbon in the corner. The flower coloring is wonderful, TFS
