Oops, my background for this card is kind of blah. I wanted to do a white on white card. I was going to use a large white butterfly where the flower is but it was just too much white and it got lost in the card. So I took out the "Vintage Vogue" set and stamped the large flower using Pretty in Pink ink. I then cut the flower out and sponged the edges with Regal Rose. I added a large pearl to the center of the flower and then (I obviously wasn't thinking) I added tiny pearls all around the large one. One at a time!!! I know, I know. I told you I wasn't thinking!!! LOL Click on the photo to view it closer.
The words are from the "Sincere Salutations" set. And I did work in a tiny little butterfly on the top petal of the flower. I also added a couple of little pearls to the butterfly.
My card isn't all that great. Now that I see it in the photo I think it's kind of blah. Even with each layer having a different texture. I should have added a scallop border along the left side or at the bottom of the square layer. I may just do that and slip it under that polka dot layer. It just needs a little something more. I may remove that top layer and make the card into a notebook. There's enough space at the side for the coils and it won't take away anything from the layout.
Sorry I can't show you the sketch. It was added to SplitCoast as a PDF file. You can check it out here if you want to see it.
Thank you SO much for visiting today,

Wanda, I think that this card is just lovely. Up close, I can see how pretty it really is. I don't think that you need to do anything else with it. Thanks for sharing it with me.

Oh, I love the pop of pink on the flower and the black layers. White on White is hard to do however, I love the finished look of them.
