I ended up with some leftovers from the last card...I had considered putting a flower where my scripture went, but didn't like the business of it. I have leftovers from my DD's wedding invitations where one of the assembly-line workers spilled cream soda on some of the stamping...It is the Medallion Stamp on white cs in Elegant Eggplant with water (and/or cream soda to spread out the color). I used the MS Hydrangea Punch to punch out these flowers. I cut a 2 1/2" circle of Eggplant and layered the garden green Little Leaves then all the layering of hydrangea flowers. I had this polka dot embossed circle laying around and adhered the flower to this. I took my card base of Garden Green and doodle-pierced around the edges then added faux stitching with a marker. I had seen several beautiful bows on Beate's cards for this challenge and decided that a layered big bow would add a nice accent to the flower. I had the leftover organdy ribbon from a package and added a double bow from Walgreen's kite twine. I adhered a purple button over this. Stamped my greeting in Garden Green and was done!

Great recycling/rescue job, Gail.
This is precisely why I don't have a drink on my desk, and the water jar for painting always has the lid firmly on, LOL.
