houndstooth & damask card set.

I was totally blown away by *this card* on Ashley's blog.  And since I needed to whip up a quick card set for a last-minute gift, I cased her design, rather than start from scratch creating my own.  Sometimes it's just like that.


The set came together so quickly, except for cutting out all of the flowers by hand.  That'll teach me to not buy the matching dies *wink.*


Thanks for peeking!

    Beautiful card. I love your color choices. I ususally buy the die before I buy the stamp set. My days of fussy cutting are almost over.

    Oh, you rocked this one. I love your choice of colors--I am always drawn to the bright (and shiny). Love that corduroy button.

    The 2 look totally different. Love that you pulled inspiration but totally made it your own.
