Romantic Flourish & Lace

Photo Details

Poster: stampin'nana

For Kathy's challenge: Create a Romantic card. I think there's something SO romantic about receiving a single flower. Colored my iris with blender pens and markers, sponged around while still in the die, sponged the gray layer. I just Love the Victorian Lace bg with the flourish!

A single flower when it is from a child is touching(from my husband, I want a BIG beautiful bouquet) ; ) Your card is so lovely in its simplicity and I love that you chose an iris when others would have gone with a rose.

Beautiful card! I love the interplay of the neutral background with the colored flower. They all work together because of that swirl - the placement is perfect! This will be on lots of favorite lists this week, I'm sure!
