Mmm . . . don't you love those colors?! So fresh and spring-like!
And here is the card I created:
As you can see, I went with the color scheme. We have two anniversaries in the family at the end of May, so I took the opportunity to use these beautiful swans to create an anniversary card. I also used my favorite Flower Power Separates flowers and leaves to create the background. And the little banner behind the image is actually two pieces of paper that were in my bits and pieces stash. Oh, and the oval was also in the bits and pieces stash. It was just the perfect size for the swans.
