Ruby Wedding...A touch of red!

Good morning!
Yay it's Saturday! That means it's time for the Less is More challenge for this week which is A Touch Of Red! Here is my entry...it's a ruby wedding card I have made to sell on my stall this morning at Holland's Garden Centre, Bolton.
The text (Scriptina) has been foiled on Jen's foiling machine, the flourishes are Sizzix and the flowers are Hobbycraft. I hope you like it!
I am posting this entry from a somewhat chilly, breezy market stall on my phone so I will tweak it when I get home!

*Edit* Hey thank you all for your wonderful comments on my card! I had a wonderful day at the market, and did fairly well on sales, though sadly this card is still with me... it will sell one day! I have, however, sold many of the cards I made thanks to this blog...the Glittery Butterfly, The Guitar one, and a couple of others I can't think of right now.
Ok after a long day of market, then work, I am settled with my glass of wine so I'm off to blog hop and comment now...
