Stef gave us some pretty colors today: Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather, Balmy Blue & Soft Sea Foam. Dessert: Ribbon or Twine.
Thank you so much to the Color Team for asking me to be a guest for this month! It's good to be back in the saddle! I have not purchased the new colors so I had to substitute. Stamped flowers in the purples then added centers with crumb cake & fussy cut each one. The little dots have wink of stella on them. For the leaves, I stamped-off the solid image once then stamped, added the defining layer full strength. Sponged the wisteria frame and added 2 pieces of folded over ribbon. Wisteria layer is on fun foam and sentiment on pop dots. I took some drywall tape placing it in different directions on the white rectangle and sponged with the blue, also sponged around the edges. Thanks for stopping in! ~Roberta

This is oh-so pretty Roberta! Love these wonderful purple blooms that take center stage. I m so impressed with the bg technique you used because it is so creative and has fantastic results. I love your ribbon detail here as well. What a lovely card my friend! ~Karen.

They worked out lovely....so pretty. What a neat way to add the ribbon....adds with the clean classy look, and love how you sponged the bg...I never think of doing that with embossing...TFs..:0)
