Kept things pretty simple for this card. I used the Act 48 Curtain Call colours (and just realized I missed the submission deadline again!) as they were wonderful flower colours and there was green for the stems LOL! I popped up the middle flower and added buttons to the centers. Had to look high and low for a purple button, and this was the best I could do. It' a very dark purple which almost looks black, but it is purple, I promise! My purple issues continued when I realized I didn't have matching ribbon so I had to go with this one instead. The sentiment panel is in lieu of the circle and a few black half pearls around it added a little "oomph".Hope you are having a fabulous weekend! Thanks for sharing a part of yours with me (((hugs)))
