A Touch of Elegance

 

Hi everyone.  Today's card is one that I just love, love, love.  I'm using Graphic 45's Botanicabella rereleased collection along with some of my favorite dies and card stock from Crafter's Companion.   I think the two together make for one more elegant easel card. 

 

I topped it off with some ribbon from May Arts.  This is one of my favorite ribbons as it has wired edges so that helps to be able to make bows fluff and stand just the way I want them to. 

 

Here's a complete list of goodies from Crafter's Companion that I used on this project and links so you can go pick them up yourself.
