Sorry this picture is a little blurry! I took it with my iPhone - turned out ok considering the camera!

I made this card, which is a bit of a different style for me after discovering Kristina Werner's blog, and watching this video. Can you believe she wrote that sentiment? Amazing! She inspired the design as well as the breaking out of my SU background stamps!!!

Anyway, thanks for stopping by!

I created this card based on the "Compose a Card" challenge a couple weeks ago from Becky Oehlers. I absolutely love the result, though I didn't get it uploaded in time to participate - oh well, it was super fun to try. My favorite part of this card is how the ribbon turned out wrapped around three times. I think I'll use that again :-)

Ink: SU Mauve Mist
Stamps: PTI Mixed Messages
Misc: SU Heart to Heart punch, Nicole Crafts ribbon, PTI Vintage Button
