This card took me two days to make. First I decided that these colors are perfect for the Flowering Fields set. They are lovely colors! But every time o use this set I get marks from the edge of the stamp, so I kept having to restamp.
Well, here it is. I finally got it and ribbon for dessert even though tying a bow is the most frustrating thing for me.

They are beautiful colours for those flowers indeed! Would you think of trimming the rubber a little so you don't have the same problem again? It's too nice a set not to use.

Your persistence paid off - this is beautiful! I luv the background - subtle enough to let the flowers steal the scene. Tying bows are difficult for me too. I think it's because my left handed brother taught me how to tie a bow and I'm right handed.

Wow, Jen, no matter how frustrating this was to you, it's gorgeous, and I love the background too! Beautifully framed, and the bow is pretty. Bows are a struggle for me too! Hugs!

Jen, you used this week's colors to perfection, creating our pretty garden of flowers. I love the white frame, the soft stenciling in the background, and the pretty bow.

Jenn, I agree that the colors worked splendidly for the Flowering Fields set. Gorgeous stenciling as a backdrop for the flowers, and fabulous framing gives a lovely finish to this winning card.
