  3. What a cool card! No it does not look Halloweenie at all. If your SIL does not like it then she needs her head examined - and yes, it has enough flowers for sure! Love it!!

  34. I don't see Halloween at all hun ... i see a truly gorgeous card, It shows how versatile you are in your crafting that you aren't afraid to use colours that some people associate with certain times of the year... I use pink and reds all year round but it doesn't mean that i am making valentines cards... :)
    your work is stunning...
