This is for Wendy's very clever Ways to Use It challenge Two by Two!
If this card is any indication how the rest of my day is going to go...I could be in trouble!! I used my stamp-a-ma-jig so that my sentiment at the bottom would be perfectly aligned. The card is in line with my grid, the stamp-a-ma-jig is in place, the stamp is inked and voila! SENTIMENT IS SLANTED. uuuuuggggghhhhhhh!!!!!!!!! I wasn't about to start over because I already spent way to much time folding the little dsp thingy behind my ribbon treatment. Ever try to fold paper on the 1/8th inch score? Don't bother! LOL
Anyway, my images from Heartfelt Thanks were inked in Blush Blossom (oh, I miss that color), Peach Parfait, Pear Pizzaz and Limeade. DSP is from Paisley Petals. Victoria Crochet Trim layered with Taffeta Ribbon. Simple enough!
Thanks for taking a peek! Look forward to reading your comments and I'll leave mine tonight. Have a great Friday! Stay cool if your in a HOT zone like me today!!

I hope your day stays good . The trouble it took to pleat that paper was definitely worth it - after the flowers drew me in that was the next detail that hooked me.
I know the frustration of being sure you've lined everything up and somehow it doesn't look right!!

Robin, your sentiment does NOT look slanted. I think this is so pretty. I miss the color, too! I commend you on folding the paper. It was worth the time!

Your sentiment looks straight to me. I love that pleated dp behind the ribbon, and of course that flower stamp set. One of my all time favorites. This is beautiful.
