So - onto my DT card, which is "clean and simple", for a change!! (The card is pale ivory, but looks blue in the photo - does anyone have any tips for photographing cream (and white) card please??!!!
I am entering my card into this week's challenge at
Sarah Hurley - Embossing, and
Stamp Something - Something With Thanks.
The sentiment is a Hero Arts stamp. If it's a digi sentiment you are searching for, or a custom-made stamp, please take a look at Raindrop Echo Designs (Ann Vento). Her designs are fabulous.

Sylvia, this is SO pretty! I have been admiring it for a week now. In fact, I used this card as inspiration when a friend asked me to teach her how to make cards (like you can do that in an afternoon)! The sample card I made was much plainer than yours and different but I thought your ideas were terrific. If I ever blog about it I will link back to you. (yours is much better!)Awesome work here, Sylvia!
Beautiful!! Very elegant indeed. Thanks for the link too Sylvia, much appreciated x
Refined and sublime Sylvia, just like you :-)
Sensationally stylish and sophisticated card.
Plus it's got a birdie!
The vanilla card looks quality stuff, can you copic or watercolour on SU card?
