I couldn't think of anything to bring to a ball but maybe a small nosegay of flowers and a big bow!! I got my bow easy out for this bow, I hadn't used the bow easy in so long I couldn't even remember what to do, so my first bow was a disaster. I wanted the bow to be the focal point of the card since this is all about the ribbon.
The flowers were stamped in clear Versa Mark and embossed with gold ep, cut out and mounted to the circle that was cut with a SU! circle punch and Cuttlebugged with the Swiss Dots folder. I cut three strips of Martha Stewarts Border punch and arranged them to please me. Used paper from DCWV and my stash. I stamped tha largest flower on the envelope, applied some stickles to all the flowers and VOILA!!
I am going to include some ribbons after I look at her gallery and decide what colors she seems to like.

SPECTACULAR card! So nice of you to also send her some ribbons! We will probably all send misc. items, so she can make cards again. I bet she has lots of stress, she needs to release, and stamping/card making is the best therapy!
