I made some time for stamping this evening. I didn't have a lot of time -- I had so much to catch-up on this weekend since I was away from home all last week, so I kept things pretty simple.
I used some of my new "Bundles of Bouquets" stamps by My Favorite Things to make this card. The row of roses is a stamp made up of three rosebuds, stamped three different times to create the row of nine flowers. I think these flower buds are *adorable*! The little corner swirlies & flower are from the same set - very cute!
I also had to play with some of my new Prima flowers! Prima Petites come in lots of great coordinating colors, shapes and sizes and I was able to quickly layer a couple together to create a unique bloom.
I really like the ribbon I used on this card, and *sniffle* this was my last bit of it! I had to be a little creative on how I added it to the card so I could make sure I had enough! The ends are held to the backside of the black layer with small Glue Dots, and the ribbon ties on the front are held in place with the brad at the center of the flower. *Phwew* ... just barely enough!
Products Used: Bundles of Bouquets by My Favorite Things; Pearlized White, Black and Celery cardstock by Paper Accents; Designer paper by Creative Imaginations; Ribbon from Michael's; Prima Flowers; Brad by Making Memories; Markers by Prismacolor; Markers by Copic; Markers by Tombow; Jet Black Stazon ink by Tsukineko; Glue Dots; Tombow Mono Multi Liquid glue.
Whoa! You make gorgeous cards and sew really cool bags, too? Amazing!

Very pretty - I love the Primas and ribbon, that's a nice touch. Sorry you had to use the last little bit though, that's tough, isn't it?
