Pretty Yellow Roses...

One of my dear friends asked me if I could create a special card for her mom's birthday...so of course I couldn't turn her request down. She said her mom's favorite color is yellow and that she likes flowers...NO HELP! hahaha. well, it was a little bit of help =) I didn't think about it until I got home and then started to stress...what was I to create? I fell asleep and woke up at 2:30 am to do this...whew! glad I got it done. I think my best work comes in the wee hours of the morning...lol! any whoo...on to my card. I used my prima roses, large star spacer, heart charm, half pearls and net from Stamp and Create. I also used some dew drops, nesties, cuttlebug embossing folder and the lili of the valley bunny image. what do you think?
I then decided that I better decorate inside the card too...something simple, but to give it a finished look for the entire card. so here's how it looks.
I hope my friend's mom likes her card! it's her birthday today and she should be receiving it. yay...it's Friday...time to have some relaxation and fun this weekend! I would really like to thank everyone for stopping by and leaving me such sweet and encouraging words. it really means a lot to me. here's something to think about...“We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have.”...Frederick Keonig
