This card is "double blessed" because the heart was gifted to me from Brenda (aka Benzi) snd the floral spray and postage stamp frame were gifted to me from Charlene (aka Houseofcards-AZ). When I told Charlene how much I loved the spray on her recent card, she immediately sent me some in blue and purple. Here is her original card: Bright Corner Floral by Houseofcards-AZ at Splitcoaststampers
and her second version in purple: Bible Verse Card by Houseofcards-AZ at Splitcoaststampers
As much as I loved her CAS design, I didn't want to just copy her so I tried my best to switch it up a bit with the heart and planking. I hadn't intended to use the postage stamp frame, but the card needed a little something something and that seemed to be the something it needed.
Trust me when I say this looks way better IRL. Again, my photography just doesn't capture the blues very well but they all coordinate beautifully in person. Hope things in your life are coordinating beautifully. Other than this card, the rest of my life is acting uncooperative and uncoordinated today. Luckily, it's nothing big nor important...just annoying. LOL. TFL

Beautiful card, Debbie! I love the striking blue and white color combo! I think the planking EF makes a wonderful background for your central design! Hugs!

You certainly created a beautiful card and it has so much texture. Glad to see you use that heart and the spray is gorgeous. Love the colors and your plank background. Yep, we all have those annoying days. Hope your days have improved.
