MMSC#48

Ah, not one of my stellar cards but it is okay. My mojo left me again. Darn mojo. That's so not fair. I tried and tried to find my mojo. I looked in my closet, I looked under the bed, I even went to Walmart and Target to see if I could buy some mojo. Sadly, it is not for sale. So, in the meantime, my faithful followers (ie my dork sisters and the design team from MM) you get to look at this. Don't try to butter me up and say it is a great card. I know better!!
What you can't see is the ribbon is actually a purple. It looks more black here though. The ribbon elements that were supposed to be on the top and side of the image were too overwhelming so I just used pearls. I do like the ribbon though. It is very pretty. The center flower is a rub on.

  3. Karen this is just so classy. It has a charming sophisticated feel to it. I love the embossing and the boldness of the flower against it. Your ribbon is phenomenal. Great job with the sketch this week. Thank you so much for playing along with us at the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge. We love coming to view your wonderful creation.

  4. I like the ribbon tie, well done! My ribbon bows always give me fits. Nice, classic color combination too. And every time I see that little symbol or the Dragonfly Yarn Shop I want to go back . . . still have some stash to work through first though!

  5. If you do find your mojo...maybe you can send a little of it my way!! I actaully think this has a lot of visual interest and makes a big impact...a very unusual use of the flower and love the color combination, Karen!!
