Hello dear friends,
Today I am sharing a card made with one of my new Wild Rose Studio stamps and Annabelle’s Meadow paper pad. Blue is one of my favourite colours and I love the outcome of this card. The blue ribbon is also a new addition to my stash. It is from May Arts and the silky look is so gorgeous. I ordered some more colours and can’t wait to use this ribbon on more cards as it makes perfect bows each time. Colouring such a detailed image took a long time but in the end, everything was worthwhile. Hope you like the card as much as I had fun in creating it.
