Pastel Hello


Using several pastel colors is not easy for me, but this lovely DP seems to have the correct ones. I like to use it as a focal point - it is from the DCWV Garden Party pad.  I used the Cuttlebug faux stitching forder to "adhere" the lavender strips, and a die cut greeting from the CB Everyday Greeting set.  Scraps of cs and ribbon complete the card.
