For my card I am using Flourishes Cherry Blossom and Kids at Play stamp set. I am also using some vintage springtime dp. I decided to go vintage with my card and these colors. My hardware is two corsage pins!
As for the funky seam binding topper, I coffee dyed some solid white mini pom pom fringe and let dry. I love this mocha color. I then cut a strip and rolled it to make this flower/accent element. Truly vintages it up a bit! I really think it is different and unexpected.
This card is also for Flourishes FTTC106! We are making Birthday cards!
