Thank you all so much for your kind comments. This one was a lot of fun (but took awhile too). I really did quite a lot to it but played around so much that I may have missed something in my description. I had an idea of what I wanted so I just had to try different things.

Kara, I thought you liked flowers and the antique/vintage look so that is why I did this one for you. I am glad you like it! I hope your day was filled with fun, excitement, family and friends...and of course...PRESENTS!! :D #6768177

Carol- I am in awe of the look that you have accomplished here. Vintage with such a look of elegance. It is high class. So beautiful in color. The pink just stands out from the rest of the colors but by no means competes with them, rather they work in harmony. The effects give a unique look that is hard to put into words, other than they are breath taking.
Stunning work #6774532

Wow, this is fantastic, Carol! I see you've caught the grunge bug, too! :) I love the effects you've used, and how the color of the rose stands out from the background. Just gorgeous--a winner, imo! #6844709
