    I love how you used the fabric tape on the first card. I have some, but I haven't used it in a long time. You've inspired me to use it again! I really adore your second card, though. The elegant floral stamps are some of my faves, and you used this flower perfectly! Your colors are gorgeous, and the centerpiece you created is stunning!
