This must be the prettiest card in the history of cards - seriously!!! Your coloring and white embossing totally take these flowers up to "high end boutique embellishments!" If that's a thing - but you get my point. Wow oh wow! The layering is stunning. The chevron overlay is so pretty, I just want to reach through my PC and grab it! ;0 You really stole the show - well done!
