A little over the top

I've entered into three challenges this week: Card Patterns, Sketch, Embellish Color Challenge Featuring Birds and Everything but the Kitchen Sink Challenge.

Here is my creation..

It's a bit over the top, but it sure was fun making it. I used my own judgment following the card sketch. It's close, right? The color challenge wasn't too hard since I started out with designer paper that had all the colors. Then the last challenge was to use buttons, which I have no trouble doing that.

I've been wanting to use these flowers. I got them at JoAnn's and are so similar to the beautiful flowers that Webster's pages sell. Probably much cheaper, too.

Here's the inside..such a nice sentiment.
Thanks for stopping by,
