Anette *Day 6*

Here is our last inspiration card by Anette:

The first thing that caught my eye on this card was the creative way Anette included the sentiment! What a great idea to stamp it on the leaf of the flower. The ribbon makes a beautiful stem and the color of the flower is to die for! Love it's brightness and coral color! Finally, the flourishes add an elegant touch!

Here is my take:
