Sometimes I am really drawn to a stamp set even though I have no idea how I will use them. That is how I felt about this Kiddie's Corner set from Rouge de Garance.
Tonight I combined it with Kazan's Sketch #24; Stampabilities Vintage Flourish 03; Cloud paper from Jenn Ski's Actopus to Zelephant; and designer paper from Memory Box Poppyfinch.
The sentiment is from Hero Arts Anytime Messages. It seemed just perfectfor the design. The strip of designer paper seemed a bit plain, so I wrapped some thin grosgrain ribbon around the card.
Beautiful card. the colours are so lovely and the ribbon certainly finishes it off.
