I know you probably don't need reminding the weather is rubbish at the moment but boy was it cold here yesterday...we even put the heating on at work it was so chilly! What's the betting it will be warm and sunny next week when the kidz are back in school!
You may recognise the design of this card...I made a similar one a while ago in turquoise and thought I'd make one in peach this time! I think it looks quite striking with the black mat behind the papers and image and I might make a few more of these as they are a really quick and easy card to put together! This card was for hubby's Aunty Audrey and as she has just turned 93 years of age I didn't really think a cutesie image was appropriate for the occasion...hubby said she loved the card so mission accomplished!

Donna, this is so gorgeous. i love the butterfly with the embossing, it is perfect. Yes, the black is such a great background with the peach - it's all very beautiful; perfectly put together.
