This is for the inspiration challenge found here and the limited supplies challenge found here. Card size is 9-1/8" x 4".
I'm not completely happy with the way this turned out. I wanted the leaves to be subtle, but they sort of blend into the background. I guess I should have outlined them or used a darker backdrop. And instead of stickles, I should have used punched cardstock circles in chocolate for the flower centers. The sparkle doesn't really fit with the rest of the card. But it was very late and my brain must have already gone to bed.
