I hope you had a really great week - mine was a busy one but a good one.
Today's card share is another card using the Avant-Garden stamp set and the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set. I really love this set and right now it's my go-to stamp set. This card is for someone in my acquantice-ship who I feel needs to know someone is thinking of her as she works her way through a rough patch.
I used Emerald Envy as the base color as the person this card is meant for loves the color green - and it also makes me smile and think of Spring! |
Here you can see the application of the ribbon and the ribbon bow |
I hope you have a wonderful week - and please, send someone you know a "thinking of you" card - it will make their day!
For now, Happy Inky Smiles to you.

Cut:
Emerald Envy 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" folded in half to create your card base
