Gorgeous card, I like the different shades of blue.
Your wonderful sense of color comes out in this card. The butterfly and flower are great embellishments. Beautiful card. Blessings.
Hello Dolores! I'm so glad I get to be your neighbor!! I hope that you have a wonderful weekend and a very fun hop!!!
What an ADORABLE ruffle card Mom!! Beautiful!
Your card is really nice! I may have to try this technique! So glad you are having a happy retirement that is filled with time to do all the things you love. Giving back by making cards for OWH gives our lives purpose. I know I am grateful to have the opportunity to make cards for our Heroes.
Great card - love the many shades of blue. I will have to use this technique soon.

Delores, this is a gorgeous interpretation on the 'ruffles' technique! The monochromatic color scheme is lovely. So glad to have you hopping this weekend!
Terrific example of a monochromatic card. Love the flower and butterfly with the ruffles. I got a punch today so I could finally try this tutorial.
First, terrific job on the ruffle card. But the paintings are awesome. The first one with the misty sky is so neat, love the trees and boulders. Then the bare tree trunks is so eerie and yet calming...nice job

I really like the fall painting with the steeple in the back. The lily card is pretty too. The ruffles are something I haven't tried yet. Will have to do so soon.
