I had this card sitting half completed on my table for about a month as I couldn’t figure out what to do with it.
The patterned paper is cut off a cardfront that I recieved for graduation, wrapped with white organdy ribbon and silver cord, and layered onto a white piece of cardstock that has a scalloped edge. There is a mini silver eyelet in each scallop.
I couldn’t decide what to use as a focal point so the card just sat around until I got my preties set from Stampin’ Up. Then I dyed the flower, added a half pearl and glued it to a chipboard heart that I stamped with blue flourishes.
Then I punched out an oval with my Giga scallop punch, stamped the border with Gina K.’s borders for the punches, stamped the sentiment and attached the heart.
I finished the card by adding a pin with a few beads to the ribbon.
For not knowing where this was going it came out awesome… I have cards like that… They sit and sit half done until they take on a life… Sometimes it is better to walk away and think it over…

I think it’s gorgeous! That happens to me all the time, I work on something, halfway through the creative juices just stop flowing. I set it aside and then one day, voila! Great card, Kurtis!
It’s so nice to hear that sometimes you have trouble finishing a card and that isn’t just something I do!! The card turned out exceptionally well!! Another gorgeous card Kurtis!!
As always, your work is exquisite!!
Beautiful card. I really like the reversal of color (patterned paper and chipboard heart). The pin and ribbon are very elegant yet simple. Thanks for sharing.
