Simply Soft Card

Think you recognise this card?  I have made a version of it before but wanted to have another go at it.  Last time I only used four squares of flowers, this time six.  It's a birthday card for a friend of one of my sisters who enjoys gardening.  I'm not sure about the ribbon though.  

There are two layers of blue, the first has been distressed on the edges and then the top layer run through an embossing folder on the edges and  sponged all the way around.  Same with the cream squares; the first layer distressed and the top layer stamped, embossed and then sponged.  Maybe I should have put a sentiment on it somewhere.  What do you think?

A set of cards

Apologies for all the old and retired products used on these cards.  I promise there will be some new things soon.  

Actually, this set is still current.  Delicate Doilies has a set of four stamps all designed to look a little like lace doilies that your grandmother used to have.  The card was part of a set of 10cm cards I made a while ago to give away as a gift.  

Can you see where I stuffed up on the flower card?  I managed to get a little bit of ink on the side of the stamp which ruined the whole thing.    Isn't it the way that when you do stuff up it's usually about the last thing you had to do.  

 

 I thought I had more in the set, but can't find the others.  Mustn't have photographed them.
