Hope these colors are close enough. I did try adding s small strip of lace along the middle, but looked funny, not enough space I think, so added some pearls.
I hope this isnt too Paris, after I finished this I realized it had a paris little word stamp in the set as well, its one of the only vintage sets I have. Inside I am putting a old cup of tea with a nice verse.
I just stamped, sponged, twice,,,lol...The first time tried to color the dress flowers with markers, did nto work so did that again, was going to leave it all blue, but they kept calling for color, I see I might should have just left it, havent done much silhouettes, except black ones, so a bit new to me. Was going to put roses but used these flowers instead so to keep card flatter for mailing. Added the corners to make it like a vintage picture....thanks for the visit and I hope no back door, :0).

Wendy I don't know how you made Victorian look so detailed yet so clean, but this card is amazing! I love your focal point, and the texture of your BG and the beautifully designed flower sprays are gorgeous and work perfectly together. Love the corner detail! Kudos to your mastery of both of these challenges. Rheannon will just love this card! Thank you so much for coming to her Teaparty. Make sure to grab extra cookies - you surely have earned them. Big hugs from NJ!

Wonderful image, Wanda, and beautiful colours. I love the way you added the little pearls to the flourish, and the super photo corners. The flowers and their greenery are also beautiful - I think this is a gorgeous card.

Such a pretty vintage card. All the elements work so well togetger. The oval die cut makes a nice frame for your butifully colored image. I love the flowers and the pearls.
