I made this card for a new friend that I made on SCS, she is graduating soon and wanted to make all her own thank you's. So I sent her a bunch of images, so she should also make some cards for friends and have room for error! She seemed really sweet, so I thought I'd send her a card!
I wish I had made the card a tad bit bigger so more of the yellow rose paper would show through, but I trimmed it so the wrought iron punch would be even! I also wanted to use blue ribbon, but didn't have any that matched!

What a gorgeous card, Deb! It's just like you to do something like this and to send your new SCS friend some 'happy' things is another gesture that's just so you. This is a fabulous card ~ done to perfection I might add!

Very pretty, love those colors, the rose dp, the wrought iron edging is beautiful, the stickles makes those roses stand out and that fiber really sets it off. You did a super job.

Very nicely done Deb, How sweet that was of you! Your card is amazing! Love the punch down the side and the fiber.

Oh my gawsh, no way! I have to make a graduation card for my friends daughter that's navy blue and gold! This card is fabulous. I love the punch down the side, way cool. Also like the rose paper, gives it a nice soft touch. Great card!
