This card was mde for today's color challenge Certainly Pretty Lilac. It was a no brainer to use the Blossoms Abound set as all the lilacs are starting to bloom here. It took me a bit of time to get this card balanced. I ended up layering it onto a pink card which make the finished product larger than a normal sized card. This would fit into the large envelopes that SU used to carry.

This was my first thought, but I couldn't for the life of me find my set - it's just beautiful as this set always produces a good card - this one, however, is exceptional!

Gorgeous card! I love how you framed the blossom! This is the first set that came to my mind, too, but somehow I went in a different direction altogether!

Lilacs are so pretty this time of year. This is a great card. Love the image in an oval. Your a pro at the coluzzle. It and I are not friends. Love the colors and the canvas really makes this a special card. Great job.
