Welcome
I love the technique of a simple, drawn frame as demonstrated by Natasha Foote here.
So much so I taught it in a class last year, and then the panel sat neglected due to a smudge...
I water coloured the rose bud this year and again it sat....
Then inspiration hit, and I embossed the sentiment in a matching red on an opaque parchment style paper, and cut it to a banner shape, and it hid the smudge beautifully...
The finishing detail was a few red rhinestones
I decorated the inside with some red washi tape

Your card is beautifully CAS, Maxine, and what a great way to revive it from the smudge. Thanks for sharing your card with us at The Flower Challenge.
So very classy. I love this frame and `i must remember to look back at it later and perhaps use it if that is alright with you in a card I have to make for someone. It would be the perfect card for her and I will have a flower stamps that will work I a sure.
Love it.
Blessings, Neet xx
