Thanks for being my friend

I used this week's sketch from Crazy 4 Challenges for my card today. I'm totally loving this card except I'm not sure about all the white space above my sentiment. I thought about adding something, like maybe a stamped flourish or something but was afraid that I might make things worse so I decided to leave it as is. What do you think?

***Supplies***
Patterned Paper: PTI Friends til the End
Stamps: CTMH Thank you
Other: Cuttlebug, Nesties, EK Success flower punch, Fiskars border punch, CTMH adhesive pearls


Well, we made it to Friday. Any big plans for the weekend? None here. Devin's got homecoming festivities to attend to so I probably won't be seeing much of him. Who knows what I'll do once I'm out of work today. In any event, I hope your Friday is fantastic.

It's absolutely gorgeous just the way it is Alanna! But I do see what you mean....I have THE hardest time leaving too-much-white on my cards!! Looks and feels to me like something is missing....but not here...it's perfect!

So pretty, Alanna! Gorgeous color.

Enjoy your weekend.

Beautiful, Alanna. Love the color, too. Hmmmm...maybe some paper piercing in the corner? Or another smaller flower or two? I really like it as is, but know what you mean and these popped into my head.

Have a fantastic Friday...the weather should start to cooperate from what I hear.

Lovely Alanna!

I really like this soft color and I think a little white space is fine! This is a beautiful design, wouldn't change a thing!

Enjoy your weekend!

I think it's perfect with the white above the sentiment - you can do too much and draw away from your message . . . I also like the balance! It is a beautiful card!
