This is for Sharon's (notimetostamp) Friday's challenge to make a simple card using a flourish. I had just bought this single sheet of paper yesterday and thought it couldn't be more appropriate for a flourish. As I went to cut my pretty paper, I realized the design was so big that it required a certain cut to not look funny...so this card, though simple, took several mistakes to get here. I also had this flourish hardware and wanted to try running the ribbon through it...all in all I like it...but it wasn't as simple as I had thought it would be! Thanks Sharon for this great challenge!
