This is so much better in real life, I wish I could've captured the sparkly details. On the longer points and center of the center flower and a few along the right bottom edge of the oval are tiny dots of diamond Stickles. The motif was stamped in white, as well as the square stamp image from that set (on the top square layer under the flower). The center medallion is stamped in blush blossom edged in Groovy Guava (loving that color!). The blush blossom piece was stamped in linen in BB and with French Script in guava. The scalloped edge was cut with my favorite deco scissors, then my DD (5)insisted I glue the remnant back on (and I'm glad I did- good idea sweetie!). The greeting on the oval is on a pop-dot so it emerges through the front when closed. Hope you like... this is my first attempt with this set and I'm loving it already! TFL.
ETA: Guess what, since I uploaded this I've added a wide organdy ribbon (ivory) tied in a knot between the left edge and the oval window... I thought it would be over the top, but I LOVE it. Maybe I'll get an updated photo posted in the next day or so. Also, the scissor I used is the Fiskars Sunflower. HTH.

The colors together are so soft. I like everything about your design. Simply gorgeous! btw what sissors are those? It makes for a great border. You are going to make a groovy guava fan out of me yet.
