I received this gorgeous card from my talented Tante Saakje recently and wanted to share it here with you. My Tante (Aunt) got me started creating cards 7 years ago (how time flies) and I haven't looked back since. Saakje loves to use lots of colour in her designs as you can see here.
I love this design ! I can see she used Greenery CAC018 stamp by Impression Obsession for the backgrounds (one of my favorite Cover A Card stamps) . The gold embossed flower in the middle is from the beautiful Brocade Backgrounds by Chocolate Baroque (it's on my 'wishlist') and the pretty flowers I'm guessing are from Hero Art, but I'm not sure. I did not ask her as this post is a surprise!
Here is a different view:
Thank you Saakje & thank you for your visit !
Have a great day,
Shirley

What a delightful surprise for your Aunt - I must admit that those colours are rather special & I absolutely love the way the background works with the images. A quite striking amalgam of stamps from different manufacturers too.
Have a lovely weekend.
