More "Love" To Share

It's Saturday and I'll bet you ten dollars I'm still sleeping...I love sleeping in! Today I have a special card to share, why you ask?  Well, it's not the 6 x 6 I've grown accustomed to it's the 4.25 x 5.5.  I  also used most of  base of the card with a few punchy additions.  This is a technique I rarely use but I admire those who follow this creative path, it's almost like Feng Shui of card making. Any how enough jibber-jabber, here is my card using Card Positioning Systems sketch. Here is the sketch:


Here is my card with TGF retired Fly Away:
(if you click the image it looks way better)


I really am pleased with how this turned out & I hope you are as well. 
Have a wonderful rest of the day!
