Case Study #90
The delicacy of this card just made me drool. The roses and pearls are just perfect with the simplicity of the patterned paper and sentiment. Couldn't see anything I could improve on so decided to flip the design. Not sure fuchsias would have been quite as appealing upside down.

Two wonderful cards, Cassandra! I love how you flipped the design on the first one to better fit the fuchsia blooms, and the pearls are just perfect. Your second card has such a fantastic masculine feel to it with the stripes, neutral colors, and understated bow. Wonderful job!
