Two of six cards I made with the metallic floral embellishments from Dollarama. The yellow flower paper is by rob n bob studio (provocraft), and the purple CS is stamped with the old-style paisley. I happened to have a perfectly coordinating lilac Sharpie so added dots around the edges of various things for funsies. The ribbon is some very pretty tri-colour dollar bin stuff from Michaels. I am so proud of myself when I actually use my ribbon, although it seems every time I use five inches of the stuff I go out and buy another spool.
The card on the right did not turn out how I envisioned it to; it started out with me trying to sponge the edges of the floral paper to give it some depth, and that turned out so horribly I had to sponge the whole thing to blend it in. I am sure my DH would tell me I am being too hard on myself. The sentiment is embossed in amethyst pearlescent EP.
Thanks for looking!!!!

Very pretty! I love the metallic flower, it is realy cute, if I knew what a Dollarama was I'd be there (is it like Dollor Tree in the US?).
Anyway, these are both really pretty! I love the colors and the sheer ribbon.
