I made this for a monthly swap - Theme was fall and I didn't feel like I really had any fall stamps.
I fell in love with this ribbon and thought it had fall colors. I usually don't ever use large ribbon on cards, but I think it still turned out pretty. I embossed the tree stamp with Copper then used watercolor crayons and blender pen to add some fall-colored leaves. I used copper paper stamped with the floral background stamp (with cranberry crisp). You can't really see it too well, but it really makes the copper paper a different color and sort of creates a hologram (if that is the right word!).
Thanks for looking!

It is absolutely lovely! I wouldn't use wide ribbon on a card either, but you totally made it work. Tying it the way you did was a stroke of genius! I also love what you did with the copper and cranberry background. I think I need to try this.
