I am still dreaming of flower gardens :) The Watercolor Wonder DSP in the Occasions Mini is helping me get my fix though. I decided about a year ago that I would not be buying the actual paper DSP, just the downloads. I don't use is up when I get the packets, and I usually
love a few of the prints and want more of them, while not using any of the others. Plus, there are times I want to change the scale of the print to fit my needs. SO, I just get the MDS versions when they come out. Perfect solution for me! I might end up using more printer ink though. Jamie bought me a printer that can print 12x12 paper almost 2 years ago now for Mother's Day. I use it a lot :)
The Retro Sketches challenge this week was intriguing to me. I saw some beautiful examples, some that are far more wonderful that my card turned out. I hope you check them out!
I loved the DSP so much, I wanted it to have a central role on this card :) I used some leftovers on my desk too. The coffee filter flower, and the snippets of ribbon. Then I pulled out some sequins and rhinestones for some glamor.

A scrap of the DSP finished off the inside. I should really think about less layers of dimensionals on these cards. They sure would be easier to mail that way, lol!
