When I started making this card, I stamped the small butterfly and dragonfly images from HERO ARTS Antique Engravings CL383 onto a few tags. I just fell in love with these small images, they seemed so precious to me. I added another small tag stamped with a 'happy birthday' sentiment from HERO ARTS Messages CL181. These three little stamped images struck me to be so beautiful that I realized that they had to take center stage. I completed the secret garden with HERO ARTS Florish Grids CL425 stamped onto core'dinations cardstock textured with a garden pattern, a small piece of patterned paper with flowers and vines, distress inks, lace, ribbon and tape.
It rained here most of the day, but now it's snowing and very icy. I stayed warm inside creating a few cards and dreaming of my garden to come :) ! I hope you you are having a safe and happy weekend. Thank you so much for your visit, I hope to see you soon!
You have captured the essence of the secret garden with the design of the card Susanne, it is truly lovely.

Beautiful layers, Susanne! I love that pretty paper with the lace border around it! We're suppose to be getting a nasty storm near the end of the weekend too. I'm really hoping it takes a different route and misses us!
