PDCC #73-Because I Care


Hi Again!

This card today is for The Play Date Cafe Challenge #73 http://theplaydatecafe.blogspot.com/ . I finally got out my wide ribbon for this one. I've been wanted to use it, but didn't have the right card for it. I think the wide ribbon makes for a lovely effect. Anyways, I love the colors this week for the challenge. Ordinarily, I wouldn't think of putting these colors together, so thank goodness for challenges...so fun! Thanks for taking a peek and adding any comments! Enjoy your weekend...take care!

Supplies:

Paper: Bazzill, DCWV(Citrus Pack)
Stamp: SU(Fifth Avenue Floral), (Because I Care)
Ink: SU(Elegant Eggplant)
Punch: EK
Pearls: Martha Stewart
Ribbon: Michael's

  1. GORGEOUS Maria!! I really love this card. The stitching and bow is amazing, and I love how you used the border punch on the top and bottom! I have that same punch...it's one of my favs! The pearls are a PERFECT finish! WONDERFUL job!
