You know...ribbon cut too short, image not completely stamped and you try to fill in with a black sharpie - go outside the lines and leave finger prints, assemble the card then notice that a brad is missing, etc, ect. To top it all off, I hit submit on the upload before the description was complete. Sheesh!! Anyway - I do like this combo and maybe the new stamps and the flourished make up for all that!

I like how you used the black to balance everything.

You used the same new set as I did. I think I like yours better -- with all your alleged problems. I like the circles stamped as a background for your butterfly. Pretty card.

Cute card! I love your story too! One of my posts today had the ribbon too high, but that was to cover an inky fingerprint. Glad I'm not the only one! Nice to see Priceless in action - it's one of my favourites in the catalogue. TFS!

love this card, great color combo. I would never have noticed the ribbon or the fill in. I'm excited to see great samples w/ a set that I want. I've changed my mind both ways after seeig samples. I'm getting this set.
