A simple card, right? NOT! This took an hour and a half, many changes of colors, inks, die cuts, and I'm still not satisfied. I have things to do, so it is what it is. Nice to use some old brads, though!!

Sounds like me...I can drag out making a card, at times. Well worth your time, though. Love your pretty flowers in the patterned paper and the pretty, checked ribbon.

I'm sure we all know what you mean about those cards that end up taking forever, but your time was well spent IMO! I love the pink gingham poppies and the gray checked ribbon. Lovely choice of die cuts to combine and such a pretty color choice.

We all have those days - eh? But, this is fabulous Anne. I love the gingham ribbon with the gingham paper, the embossing and finishing touches - wonderful. tfs
