Just One More . . .

Can you handle one more Blooming Flourishes card? I wanted to try one more color combination, obviously green! I stamped the images with New England Ivy and colored them Olive and Garden Green markers. I specked it and lightly distressed the edges with Bamboo ink. I should have covered the chipboard piece (Dimensional Elements Ribbon Accents) with paper but got lazy and colored it with a sponge dauber instead. A scrollier (not a word) sentiment probably would have looked nicer, too - again, lazy on my part. The ribbon is from the retired New England Ivy Design Ribbon Rounds collection. Pewter brads and glue dots attach the ribbon to the card.

As my company has not yet arrived, I'm going to clean up Kathi's Corner and put Blooming Flourishes away . . . for today, anyway. My friend Jeanne has inspired me to retry a card I endeavored to make yesterday. She's got some cool new cards posted on her blog, Creative Bliss, as well as some awesome digital scrapbook layouts. She's posted a layout everyday so far this month, which in my mind is inconceivable. I admire her dedication, and that said, I'm off . . .
