This card has been 'in the making' for almost three months! When I first got a new Tim Holtz Distress Ink pad in Antique Linen, I used it to rub over an entire card front. Loved the color card it gave me. It sat in my 'card parts' pile for a month or so. Then one day I used a scalloped Long Rectangle Nestability to cut the scallop on the bottom edge. Sat around for another month or so. I used a scrap of cardstock to punch this border a while back and thought it would match up pretty well with the scalloped edge. And the paper wasn't really very white, which made it match with the antique linen color. I noticed this ribbon - a good match, too. (Lots of 'matches!') One last thing - I just got these stamps at Michael's last week. I stamped them with Baroque Burgundy.
