Good Morning All!
Today I have another card featuring The Arianna Blooms Collection and it's another yellow card. I don't usually pick yellow as a main colour, but this paper was so pretty, that I used it for my colour combination.
This card also has a story. When I started to design this card, I added ink around the edges of the paper and heat embossed it, then took a quick photo for the Heartfelt Creations Facebook Page to show work in progress. When the post went live, I realised that I had photographed the paper upside down, the bird gave it away! When I went to stick down the paper, guess what? I even manged to stick it down upside down, luckily I noticed and managed to remove it, turn the card blank inside out and start again. Then I cut another piece of the same paper to hide the mess left behind inside. Got there eventually!

Good afternoon Oksana,
Once again a stunning card, I love it.
If it had not been for the "bird" the design would have looked really good either way up.
Have a great weekend
