The IC site for today's inspiration is VIETRI which features mainly Italian pottery. This garden PLANTER inspired me with its aqua color, curving edges and dimensional roses.
Gail's theme for her HYCCT challenge is "Keep Connected". My card shows this in a more symbolic way......the golden scroll anchors the whole floral spray and keeps it together...like climbing roses on a vine. The gold also represents the golden thread of friendship which weaves about in one's life.

Beautiful card, Sallie! I love the touches of gold with the lovely pink roses! The intricate, textured BG piece is wonderful as a background to showcase them!

Sallie what a stunning card... Love the die cut for the bg and then those roses really set it off... love the colour you chose for them.... then again, the scroll work with the gold border is simply genius for this card... love all of it... you have done such a great job....
