Lavender and lace thinking of you

This is one of those cards that looked a lot better as I imagined it than it actually turned out.  Oh, well...
It is meant for someone who is seriously ill so is not really a get well card.  I got the lace, ribbon, and crystals at yard sales - so I am especially happy when I find a use for them.  The floral stamp is by the Rubber Cafe, and Sentiment is from the set Today, Tomorrow and Always - a prize from Mark's Finest Papers.  I used a metallic gel pen, and QuicKutz embossing folder.

    Dorothy, what a lovely, feminine card. I'm sorry that the person receiving it won't be getting well. It's a great idea to check out yard sales for the lace. Pairing it with the dry embossing and pretty blooms is a fantastic idea. Thanks for participating in the SNS challenge - good luck! ((hugs))
