For someone special !

Hi friends,
Wanted to share a quick card with you all today which I have made keeping in mind a couple of challenges :)...Firstly, I was inspired to play along mainly because of Lisa's challenge at Yvonne's blog where she has asked us to make a shaped card using Spellbinder's decorative labels..I have used the Resplendent Rectangles die to create my card..The design of my card is based on a card I had seen on Pinterest recently..Sorry don't have a link for it...Here's a look at my card first :                                                        
And here's the front view also :                                             
As you can see, it's a pretty straight forward card where I have cut the dies from the Resplendent Rectangles set and overlapped them one on top of the other to create the ornate base of my card..And the pink flower that you see is made from the Rose Creations die also by Spellbinder's which I have colored using Distress ink -Spun Sugar..I dunno about you, but I am pretty happy about the outcome of the flower :D
Sorry I am keeping this short and simple, though if you have any queries regarding the card I will be happy to answer..So do drop me a line :)

Base Cardstock - Fabriano Brustro!

Spellbinders Resplendent rectangles, Spellbinder's Rose creations die, Spellbinder's Foilage leaves.
