I went with a feminine theme with the punched border and pearl trim.
I have fussy cut around the stamp and then popped it up with foam tape. I stamped the sentiment right onto the background paper.
Hot off the press - Postage stamp, colored w/pencils
Tim Holtz - Vintage shabby paper (top panel)
Teresa Collins - Tell your story papers
Recollections - Bling on a roll
Martha Stewart - Border punch
I have seen that most of the U.S. is under a heat wave this week, so I hope you all that are affected by it can stay cool. I plan on doing a lot of indoor work this week, thankfully we had a nice weekend before hand to enjoy.
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and saying Hi,
Connie

i will have to watch the weather, it was cool this morning when i went out to water my vegetable garden...and to cut some dill to feed the caterpillars!!!
this card is beautiful, very feminine. the "stamp" i think is the butterfly and flowers is so pretty and i like the paper on the bottom. it looks orange in the picture and i think orange is so pretty and a very under used color!! this is one "first class" card connie, well done as always!!
Fabulous details and design Connie.

What a beautiful stamp image and I love how you popped it up to add dimension. I love those pretty pearls along the bottom too.
I certainly understand the not being able to do all the white space --- I'm the same way. Though recently I've been trying out some CAS ideas with white embossed backgrounds and loving them.
Beautiful card.Have a lovely week,dear Connie!
Lovely and sweet card, love the gorgeous pearls added, the row of die cut, guess you could thread ribbon through that one too. Gorgeous matching colours. love this.…..♥♥

Connie, what a beautiful dainty card! Love the border. It looks like you added pearls to it.
The border and pearls make for a very elegant card, love the stamp, so pretty.
A heat wave sounds rather wonderful. =) A lovely card, Connie. I too love a lot of colour and pretties on cards.
Very pretty!! Love the way the bottom half looks!! Thanks so much for visiting!!

Oh I really love that background, it would make for such a pretty card alone too! That stamp is small, yet sweet and simple!
It's a really beautiful little stamp and lovely papers in those wonderful neutrals. Very soft and feminine.
A lovely looking card.
Stay as cool as you can, and keep hydrated.
All the best Jan
