ReplyDeleteI don't blame you for making three cards with that fabby stamp! Love them all, but the 3rd one really catches my eye. I like the honeycomb embossing on the background, the sequins are yummy and the green ribbon really makes everything pop. Love it! Thanks for sharing with us at Really Reasonable Ribbon!
