Fusion Card Challenge

Have you seen the gorgeous inspiration photo in this week's Fusion Card Challenge? It is so beautiful! I do not find it easy to praise myself, so you wont often find me saying  'I really like how this turned out'. But this time I am really happy! I had an idea and it played out exactly as I pictured it in my mind.



The flower image is from Clearly Besotted Happy Everything and the background stamp from Kaisercraft. The sentiment is from Wplus9.

I very rarely make a card like this, without using any black at all, so I enjoyed using the gold, which really softened the whole look. The ribbon is really gorgeous - it was in a bag of goodies that I received from Joy Taylor at our recent Craft Retreat. Joy is so generous!

ETA I am entering this card in the Clearly Besotted Challenge - the theme is 'Spring'.

    Really stunning!! The water color is so soft with the gold, and the embossing and layers make this look so elegant!
