Another crazy thing about this card is I only used ONE stamp and that was the sentiment! The patterned paper is minds eye and I think works as another great addition to the focal point! Just to add a little "sturdiness" I took a piece of cardstock and taped it to the back of the paper so it wouldn't feel so flimsy when I put it up on foam tape!
I want to use Dark Chocolate Swiss Dot Satin ribbon on EVERY card I make. I really do. So in trying to break the habit, I simply used a smaller piece this time. This is my way of weaning myself off it! hehe!
Thanks for looking today! Hope you like it!
