I went where I'd not gone before with this card (and it's twin - to follow in my gallery soon!). The colors are out there for me, but I liked how they came together. This card doesn't have a home just yet, but I have it out on my desk today to enjoy - in person, the colors are so soothing yet bright!

Oh, Chrissy, this card is gorgeous! I love the sentiment. And the embossed CS--how clever of you to use both "sides" of the EF! Love & Hugs to you, my friend!

You used the sketch to its best potential and created one beautiful card. I agree with you that those colors are both bright and soothing. I think that image and the quote have a lot to do with the "soothing" as well. Love the bit of lace to dress this up even more. Beautifully crafted, Chrissy.
