Supplies: Stamp Set: Birds and Roses by 'Sweet 'N Sassy'. Cardstock is Stampin Up! Sage Shadow, Very Vanilla and Creamy Caramel. The Designer Paper is Curio Carmella by Basicgrey. The ribbon is just a green grosgrain. The leaves are cut from a floral stem by Prima Marketing. Adhesives: Sticky Tape, Dimensionals and Dots by Stampin Up!. The Lace is Crochet Trim 'Victoria' (SU). Flowers are cut from the other side of the Designer Paper Curio Carmella. I used a 'Tim Holtz' Embossing folder (Music) just under the lace trim and below that is a border (Vanilla) cut with a Martha Stewart punch (Fan). I used the large Sizzix Scalloped Circle die for the shape of the card as well as Spellbinders Scalloped Edge and Circle. The Ink is SU Cameo Coral. This challenge is all about a round card!
