Mornin' all! Well, I am so glad I could hit your humor meters with my answers in my tag - LOL! And yes, I do use a microphone when I karaoke *wink* Okay, so on to my card. I have to say, making cards is still not getting any easier for me but I keep pluggin' on. This one is pretty simple but I love the new Ginger Blossom DP and figured it was time to cut into it! For the base of this card, I used Certainly Celery and layered it with Regal Rose, which is the same paper I used to mount my image on. You probably cannot see it, but the Regal Rose is stamped with the new background stamp Stitched in the same color - IRL it looks really nice! I used my corner rounder on all the paper on this card to give it a softer look. The DP I used was of course Ginger Blossom - I used one side for the bottom layer, and the coordinating side for the top. I love this paper, it is soooo pretty! The image is a flower from the stamp set Stitched Exotics, which I stamped on Whisper White in Certainly Celery and then punched out using my Scallop Circle Punch. I put a green Circle Rhinestone in the middle and popped the whole thing up on Dimensionals. The sentiment I colored with my Certainly Celery Stampin' Write Marker so that I could split it up and mount in on Certainly Celery using my Word Window Punch. Lastly, I added some Wild Wasabi Double Stitched ribbon, pierced my image and the corners of the paper, and I was done! A nice, simple card!

Pretty card with pretty colours Sue :o)
Love how you have rounded the corners on this card, and that paper is fantastic.
tomAlex, your card is so yummy with all of the new SU goodies! Hugs, Deb
This is lovely and I think all the new DP in the SU catty are 'must haves'. Okay, going to rob my RRSP now to get me some DP.
I love it! The rounded corners look fab, I havent used my corner rounder for ages, thanks for the inspiration!

You've got nerve--I'd never get up on stage. This is such a cute card. I'm working with pink at the moment myself. Hey, I see you are in the military field. I'm a 2nd Lt in the army reserves.
Very pretty card, what gorgeous stamps and paper! What I love the most about SU are the fabulous names they give their cardstock and paper etc.
