I used Card Pattern's #76 sketch and TSTR's "Reflections" challenge. TSTR's theme is highlighted with this photo:
A gorgeous scape to glaze upon. I like the mixture of silver, wrought iron, and distressed candle sticks. Also the light shimmers from vanilla candles. So much inspiration I found and tried to recapture in my card. I went with a monochromatic color palette, a few metal highlights, soft flowers to represent the branches shown, glittered chipboard heart for the mirror, and a soft organdy ribbon for the candle flickers. I used an older polka dot stamp with white Staz-On for the bottom of the card. The sentiment is by Amy Butler. I hope you like!
Oh and the wine was rather tasty! :-)

You really captured the essence of that inspiration photo! Loved how you described the angelic choir singing when you spotted the salvaged label in your drawer! Too funny! Anyway, your card is quite stunning. The crochet lace and glittered chipboard heart really add the perfect finishing touches to your card. :)
Fabulous creation, Amy...and how clever of you to recycle that label! It's gorgeous and just perfect for this challenge!
Beautiful card!!!
You crack me up! Hilarious. I am the same way about putting stuff up and forgetting about it. I have lost a couple things latley. :)
LOVE that you used a label from a wine bottle! Awesome card!
This card is all types of gorgeousness!!
I just love that wine bottle image on here! Such a great way to recycle old materials into something new. Gorgeous design and color palette. So perfect for our challenge this week at The Tea Room. Thanks for playing along.
Beautiful card!

this is so beautiful! fabulous card!
This card is gorgeous! I love that you've used the wine label, and the shimmery heart and all the wonderful embellies make it so special. I had to chuckle about how you forgot about it, then lost it, then found it right on top in the drawer - I do that *all the time*, LOL!! I especially lose things when I've put them in the perfect place so that I'll remember right where they are! ;)
Beautiful card! I just love the glitter heart nestled among those gorgeous flowers and shimmery ribbons! Thanks for joining us in the Tea Room!
Oh wow! What a classy and elegant card! Love the image and the sparkly bits! :)
Gorgeous card! I love all the layers and the touch a glitz with the glitter. Just like the pic! I have been trying to recreate this look in our guest room, not via PB, but by hitting every thrift store and yard sale I possibly can. Now I need to make a card to match. How fun!
I really like this work, awesome.The heart and flower everything is beautiful.
