I struggled all day with this card and almost gave up. I just couldn't figure out what to put in the center. I'm not totally pleased with it, I guess at least partly because I prefer non-symmetrical cards.
The floral image was inked in turquoise, then I added chocolate chip marker and spritzed. Instructions for spirelli can be found here. The spirelli is actually very simple - making the spirelli circle takes about 12 minutes.

I, on the other hand, do like symetrical so am terribly pleased with how it turned out. Love your colors and how you made the square scallop look like a long rectangle. Clever.

Wow! What a terrific idea to do the spirelli with circle punch. I have a friend who does the spirelli stuff, and I have always admired her work. Your card may be the nudge that I needed to actually try it too. I love your uses of scalloped punches with this card.

First thing that caught my eye were your colors -- beautiful; 2nd thing was how beautiful all your layers were (scallops, etc.); and the of course your lovely, dainty spirella!! So that makes this one awesome card in total!!
