This was done because, I hemmed and hawed over the LLBean site this morning ( started tossing gift ideas onto a wish list that none of those things were inspiring a card though... ) so, decided to open some happy mail and just play... and then later went back and looked a the rugs section. and found this one and then went hunting through my papers looking for something neutral with textures. So, this very simple card really took all day between mess stages and clean up's and searches. Thanks for this challenge Audrie, & tfl.

This is going directly into my faves. I don't usually like sentiments as the focal point of a card, but I love the way this looks....you got it just right!

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?

Beautiful! The background is fabulous, adds a lot of visual texture. The embossed sentiment is so pretty. I like the frayed ribbon. Lovely card. Very pleasing to the eye. TFS
