I decided to incorporate the flower theme into this monochromatic Mother's Day card that I made for my Mother-in-Law. Since I didn't have any Poppy Parade ribbon, I used a 12" strand of the Whisper White Organza Ribbon and dyed it used a Poppy Parade Ink pad and a sponge. I love our Whisper White Organza Ribbon just by itself and the fact that you can dye it to match whatever color theme you're using. I used the Boho Blossom Punch for the flowers and added a Whisper White brad in the middle. I got out my trusty ol' Singer sewing machine and added a sewed border.

I really love your monochromatic card in one of my favorite colors (SO going to miss the Poppy). Great idea to dye that gorgeous ribbon, and the white brads in the centers of the red flowers really make them pop - into my faves!

Gorgeous card. Thanks for the hint about dying the ribbon. I will really miss Poppy Parade.
