This card was made for today's sketch challenge and yesterday's color challenge. I have been wanting to try embellishing a die cut with some die cut flourishes a la Yvonne Hagane. I've been so inspired looking at her creations. I don't have the spellbinder flourishes, but I do have some by Cuttlebug, so I used them.
This is a retired SU set, one of my early purchases. I stamped and colored with pads and blender pens and markers. I added glitter. I did a small cut out piece for the top of the ribbon. I used my SAMJ to make a single line greeting out of a three line stamp.
I used yesterday's color challenge colors and my swirls show up in the embossing folder and the die cuts that I used to decorate the circle.
What do you think?

So elegant and lovely, Kathy. I love the toile flowers, they are the perfect picture of femininity and so beautiful in these colors. Beautiful work on that gorgeous circle.
