Today's inspiration was a group of beautiful floral candles. I chose the violet one because I thought this new Hampton Arts violet stamp would work well. I stamped and masked the Violet three times and then stamped Garden Silouettes behind the flowers. The centers of the violets were colored with a Sakura twilight pen to give it a little sparkle. I had to find a sentiment small enough not to cover up all the flowers. After getting the card assembled, I realized I did not have any ribbon exactly the same shade as the Lavendar Lace cs -- so I took some white organdy and ran it over my LL craft ink a few times. (Note to self: next time wait a little longer before making the bow. My fingers were a lovely shade of lavendar before I was through.)

What a beautiful card! Love the image, the splatter and your dyed to match ribbon. (I do this all the time, but I usually use markers because I'm too impatient to let it dry.)
