I was finally able to complete this card that has been haunting me as my mojo just wouldn't come. I don't know that the proper balance is there since the ribbon is larger than I thought it would be and the image smaller, but there you go.
I was determined to use SU pool party which I've never used - last years in color at that. I paired it with chocolate chip. Both panels are different sides of the pool party dsp, but you might not be able to tell from the photo.
I stamped the large doiley on the dp and heat embossed it. I then stamped another doiley from the stamp set and heat embossed that too - popped it up on dimensionals.
I paper pieced 2 panels, used a border punch under the image panel and made a double loop ribbon with a flower I had on hand. The button on the doiley was in my stash. I added some little scallop lace at the top to, of course, add to the doiley effect!
Thanks so much for taking a look and I hope to be able to catch up on all my commenting soon.

Let me grap my favorite drink (Kiss On the Lips) and come join the pool party. Nothing like a good gab session with the girls around the pool. Pamzi this is just one luscious color. I love this blue. Thye doily is out of this world and the Chocolate Chip makes the image pop. Beautiful card my friend. Been missing you. Take care!

Pamzi, how on earth did I miss this beautiful card? The colors are scrumptious and I love the image. Your bow is awesome. Is that a diamond from your ring..it's gorgeous! So sorry I didn't find this earlier...not being much of a Punchkateer, am I? :-)
