Does everyone have as hard a time as me when they start to even make a simple card and it turns into an ordeal. It seems I can never just whip up a card quickly hard as I try.
This is the first time I've used my new set, Very Versatile (SU). The nice thing about the delicate flower stamp is that it picks up little hints of dd very well and it just gives it a quick sparkle! I'm all about sparkle!
The 3 flowers at the bottom came out of nowhere as I couldn't find the right color or size ribbon that looked right. It's not my best, but I really tried! I also tried to do a card without dsp and cuttlebug ef as I've been doing a lot of them lately. Sorry to ramble . . .
Thanks for taking the time to look and let me know what you think if you have the time!

This is really pretty. I find it hard to use flowers so this is a card I could never design. Great colors. The swirl in the corner is wonderful for this. I love the bit of sparkle. Just a little really makes a card. Super job.

This is just beautiful! I love the colors and the three flowers. I'm so w/ you on the quick card thing. I keep telling myself I can make a quick card. You'd think I would know better by now. The only quick card is if someone else makes it, lol.

I always admire those who can pop together a 'quick' card as it's not something that I find easy either! One thing for sure though, your cards are always wonderful and this is no exception. Lovin' this VV set - it's on my 'list' though I may have to wait a bit... Love the pierced border and punched corners - and I see you have a punch that I don't...but I'm ordering it tonight.
