The coolest cards can be so easy to make. Take this card. I was in a fog with the flu, trying to come up with a card to teach at a crop to folks I didn’t know, with a class size of 15. Mmmm…. Then I saw a card by Gretchen Barron… Ok, so I case’d a card. I have to admit I was so enthralled by the eyelet mat that I didn’t remember what stamp sets she had used until after I had mine done. I just copied her mat and ribbon embellishment, went to my stamp and cs stash and began to play – only to discover when I looked up the original to give credit that we had used the same stamp sets as well.

Well you know what they say… Great minds do think alike!

Here is my recipe:

Stamp sets: Heart from the Heart and Botanical Blooms (SAB)

Classic Ink: Kiwi Kiss, Pink Pirouette

Cardstock: Pretty in Pink, Kiwi Kiss, Whisper White, Pretty in Pink dsp
