A thank you card

Hello lovely bloggers,

A very warm welcome to my newest followers - thank you for joining my little blog.
This is a thank you card I made for a newly made friend who called us home to a lovely meal...She has a seven month old son whom Aleeza (my five year old) adores. 
The printed paper for a change is not gift wrap, lol. It was sent all the way from Australia from Merry and so was the paper for the leaves. I ran the printed paper through my CB and the lace is from my stash. The punched flower with a tiny confetti flower for the centre was made with the extra bit of the yellow embossed paper.


I will enter this card in:

Wish you a happy Thursday,

Monica

So pretty with the texture and the pretty shaping - and of course, the soft pastel colors together with the dark leaves look amazing! Beautiful card! Your friend will love this pretty card. hugs, de

This card is beautiful Monica. I have had that paper in my stash forever. Never thought to team it with yellow but it works perfectly.
