This is a great greeting card for the "Thinking of You" section. The colors are really nice. The border is rather large but considering the theme, Greeting Cards I find it acceptable. Borders that larger are very common with greeting cards. I like the flower in the top right hand corner. It looks very nice there. I don't think that you should have been voted down for the border for this shot, and I think that is what happened. Another reason why you might have rec avg scores for this entry is because of the lack of focus. I guess you used a macro setting for this shot? Great mode to use, but it resulted in only a small portion of the flower being in focus. The background needs to be blurred, but not the flower petals, since it is the flower that is the main subject of the photo. Maybe not everybodies cup of tea, but I liked this entry. Good Luck in future challenges!!

This is nice. Would prefer it to be slightly sharper.

Nice image. I think that there is too much border for the challenge.

I think a greater depth of field would be nice, and not as large of a border if any at all.

Nice shot and POV. Can't make up my mind on the border though. (7)

Overall, a nice photo and a good fit into the challenge. I really like the shallow DOF. A minor point ... There is small dot along the top of the image that looks like a dust spot or maybe an imperfection on the flower.
