This is a card we made in the Stampin Up class. It was made with the Heartfelt Blooms stamp and stamped with gray ink. The background was made by crinkling up plastic wrap and using the stamp pad to ink it up. Then just pouncing on the paper. Added a strip of black card stock and a ribbon over the card stock. Easy, but I do like it. Be kind to one another.

I just went to a SU class yesterday and we used the same stamp! It has a real feel of vintage wallpaper to me and I can tell you that my card is no where near as gorgeous as yours, Brenda!! I love yours with that subtle background and pretty ribbon and sediment!! Hugs, Darnell xxoo

I think I have a stamp from SU that is almost like this and I plan to get it used soon too. I just love the card you made. So pretty and a wonderful layout design.

It certainly doesn't look like an 'easy' card. Very dramatic, and I love the elegance of the chosen colors too. That is a very attractive design layout as well. I'm so happy for you that you have the classes to attend, and glad that the weather permitted you an outing! Hope you are feeling ok. Have a great weekend. Hugs & TFS

This is gorgeous in the grays and blacks. The background looks just like faded flowers. Glad to hear you have your computers back in sync. Do annoying when one problem fixed causes another yo manifest itself. Hugs Mrs A.

What a stunning card Brenda! I love the black and white color combo. That flower is just beautiful and I am loving that background. I used to use cling wrap when I painted ceramics to make designs on ceramic eggs. Now it's made it's way to card making as well. I love how household items can aid us in our hobbies. Hugs, Brenda
