I thought this would be a simple card, and it is now that I spent the whole morning on it! I finally had my daughter in for a consult and what made the difference was when she said "Mom I think the vellum would look better with white instead of vanilla." Well duh, why didn't I see that myself! So, out when the vanilla card base and greeting! At any rate, it really would be an easy card to re-create. The Chocolate Chip piece is embossed in the Tulip ef and the vellum with the Vintage Wallpaper ef. I stamped the sentiment by inking with Versamark then Old Olive and embossed it with clear ep on the vellum. I attached this to the Old Olive with eyelets then ran a 1/8" piece of Whisper White ribbon through it. I added a fork bow and some butterflies and FINALLY called it done!

Gail, what a beautiful effect you got with the damask embossing folder and the vellum. I like how you did the sentiment with eyelets and knotted ribbon. A lovely card.
