What happened to Day 2, you ask? Don’t worry, I’ll post it – I have ideas for the cards, just not enough time!
Today’s class was about inspiration – and as I have a pinterest board full of it, I thought no time like the present to pull from it.
One of my first pins there was a cute grey/yellow hand bag (source). I really loved the yellow/grey color combo, ruffle ribbon, and Damask pattern. So those are the parts I used in my card.
I still wanted some white space on the card, so I didn’t stamp the damask over the entire white panel, and I think I really like it this way! I also think that the pattern and flowers being just on the left help give a vertical flow to a mostly horizontal card.
I need some more grey thread though. The only one I had on hand has a definitely blue-cast which is more obvious than I would like!
Thanks for stopping by!

I adore this card! This is one of my fave colour combos and your design is perfect (as is the ruffled ribbon)!
GORGEOUS card! love that ruffle ribbon & the beautiful sunflowers.
beautiful. love the space left by the punched out flowers — i never think of using punches or dies this way.
