I have used a gorgeous image from the latest Ooh La La Creations CD - Yesterday's Memories - you can purchase the CD from the Ooh La La Creations online shop.
I got the idea for the little envelope with the love letter inside from my Quick Cards Made Easy magazine, there is a fabulous section in there by Julie Gibbs (Jules to those of us who know her - take a look at her blog 'Always with a Heart', make sure you have a coffee though because you will be there for some time).
As usual I have decorated the inside of my card to complement the front.

So beautiful and romantic! Gorgeous card!
Hi Pauline
How beautiful and romantic this looks. Love your colours and the pleated seam binding (and of course the little envelope LOL!!).
Thank you for the little shout out. It was a big decision for me when it came to "what do I call myself" in the magazine. Part of me wanted to be known as Jules because that is what most people know me as - but I knew Mum would be buying the magazine and she called me Julie so I decided she would prefer to see that.
Your envelope is super posh with its scrummy lining!
Hope you are having a good week. I am having a super busy one!!!
Love Jules xx
Lovely card Pauline! I love that Magic Moonlight image, and the love letter too. Judy x
