HOW much FUN are these botanical bloom dies??? SO MUCH FUN!!! And Mary chose such beautiful colors this week!! I had an unexpected visit from a friend I have had for about 25 years but had not seen in 5 or 6 years this weekend- what a happy surprise!! I think I would have added words to this but I was so busy visiting that i never got around to it - but it's a LOVE card.....haha. Happy Tuesday everyone!!

I hope you presented this card to her before she left, Karen, because it's beautiful. There's a lot of meticulous work on this card and it shows. Beautiful embossing, bow, and polk-a-dot paper to set off those little pearls. No sentiment needed - the design says it all.

Gosh Karen, this is beautiful as a thumbnail, but jaw-dropping close up. Your flowers are amazing in their detail - I've lost touch a bit with SU - have such a stash still ... *she whispers*
