This one is for NavyWyf over at Splitcoast -- she wanted a sample with Stippled Blossoms, so here it is! I really like this set. There are enough flower and leaf pieces to make it interesting.
One think that I'll say about the new stitched satin ribbon is that you really need some Fray Check to keep it from unraveling at the cut ends. After experimenting with it, it cuts better if you put the Fray Check on the un-cut ribbon, let it dry a minute, then cut. I've gotten the best results with that.
The Gumball Green cutout behind the Primrose Petals ribbon was made with the Finishing Touches edglits. The embellishment is a medium-sized Vintage Faceted button with a Jumbo pearl glued into it.

This is beautiful. I ordered the set too, simply because I miss my ROSES IN WINTER so much. Thanks for sharing such a lovely card. You have inspired me to crack that set out as soon as it arrives!

Wow! This is gorgeous! I have been telling myself I don't need the Stippled Roses set, because I already have A Rose Is A Rose and Wild Rose (Hobby Demo here)...but now that I see your card... :-) LM
