Velvet Strikes Again

Well, in seeing Karen's card for Melissa, I realized that I had not sent her a card welcoming her beautiful baby girl into the world. I know, I am lame.

Inspired by Karen's gorgeous pink card, and inspired by the flippin' awesome pink velvet I just bought from SEI, I decided pink and brown would win again. I LOVE the simplicity of this card. I love how sleek it is. I kept looking at it thinking it needed more elements, but something in my head screamed, "ENOUGH!" So, here it is. And tomorrow, Melissa's lame friend shall mail her card!

Paper: SU! Pretty in Pink, SEI pink and chocolate velvet paper, SU! Ultrasmooth White

Oh, wow--you will actually mail yours? Yes, mine is still sitting here as I'm thinking I guess I just plan on handing it to her the next time I see her!
