A friend loaned me some of her Gina K stamps to use while she is out shopping 'til she drops this weekend.
This is probably one of the first basic card designs I ever made - stripe on the bottom, coordinating print on the top, ribbon or paper strip in the middle and a circular medallion. It is a classic design that never goes out of style (I just saw the same design in an expressionery.com ad in Oprah Magazine).
With these circular sentiments from the Gina K Punchy Words set, it makes the design even easier (I used a 1 3/8" circle punch and the scalloped circle by Stampin' Up). These fun papers are from the Memory Box Studio Collection. I know I could dress it up, but this set will be a for a man, and I know he prefers them simple.
This card also works for Sharon's DP Rules Challenge as well.
VERY pretty card and THANK YOU so much for the card you sent me. :) I love it! :)
HUGS!

Beautiful! I always revert back to 'simple' when I make gift sets, bulk cards, etc.. they always look gorgeous and don't take forever! lol!!
