A card for a Princess (Julia Spiri image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

How sweet is this little princess from Julia Spiri, I just think she's adorable. I embossed the red paper with my brick embossing folder and then lightly sanded it. I used a gorgeous Jack green vine from my company, Flourish with a Bling and added some lovely roses as if it was a vine going up the brick wall (or that's what it's supposed to look like, hopefully you see that too hehe).
