This card came together really quickly and easily for me. Definitely a combination of a fun and easy sketch, and having the perfect papers and stamps. Our Tea Party cards this week are going to Ellen (Eager Beaver) and we were challenged to use gold and pink on our cards. Well, I have a paper pack from The Paper Studio (that I rarely use) that is only pink and gold. Perfect. And I have the perfect cancer fighting stamp set from Verve. Perfect. I love it when that happens. Once I had it all assembled, I decided that I wanted to keep it simple after toying with the idea of background stamps on the white circle or doodling somewhere, etc. So, my one last thing today was just a bit of pink ribbon. I'm really glad I've started to give myself that extra challenge of "one last thing" because it helps give my card that little extra pop and helps me use up the things I hoard like ribbon, buttons, and stickers.
Love how you used pink and gold for this lovely design. Each pink point is so cute and pretty. Thank you for joining us at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.

I love those boxing gloves - so perfect for this challenge! Your 'one last thing' was perfect too. Really 'ties' the sentiment panel to the base beautifully!
