I was thinking of that song while I created this card, Crystal Lewis' Beauty for Ashes. You have to use flames to make the little chiffon flower you see at the bottom. You'll find a link to the instructions that I got from Priscilla Styles on my blog, http://rosesbymywindow.blogspot.com. The sketch is from the Midnight Madness Sketch challenge #14, and if someone knows how to do that cool link thing in a gallery post, please tell me! Also, I did this for the Flourishes card fit for royalty challenge, I'm not sure this is fit for royalty, but its very . . . poofy! Thanks for looking.

This is beautiful! So pretty and feminine. I love how you cut out the flowers and how they overlap the card base. The pearls are a lovely accent and that flower is gorgeous. Beautiful lacy ribbons, too.
