Raspberry Suite Color Challenge 7



Here is my card for Dawn McVey's Raspberry Suite Color Challenge.

I've had this Laura Ashley stamp for years and I go back to it again and again. It can be used for so may occasions and the color combos are limitless. I like this one, but my favorite for this stamp is dark green and purple ~ really pretty. I also don't usually put a ribbon or embellishments on it, but for the challenge I decided I better glam it up :) I used a square of vellum to stamp the sentiment on so the raspberry color of the ink would not distort and look muddy stamped on green paper. I used raspberry embroidery floss wrapped around the top and bottom. Hope you like it!
