Cottage Wall DSP

I just love how Stampin' Up coordinates all their products.  Making this card was easy with a variety of punches, stamps & grosgrain ribbon, creating layers with Cottage Wall Designer Series Paper; even added a brad for the stamped flower. 

This card was made for a family member on her Birthday, along with a matching gift bag, designed with Cottage Wall DSP also.

Mood:  Delighted
