As soon as I saw the picture I thought of this AC Dear Lizzy paper. I like the way the striped May Arts ribbon works with it- like the intersecting stripes on the picture. And it just so happens that I'm in need of a few thank you cards, so I made another quick one! Both of these are on PTI white cardstock & use Butterfly Dreams in aqua mist. The scallops are aqua mist cardstock cut with a border punch- fiskars, I believe.
You can see that the paper is embossed from this angle. A lot of interest without being overly busy, I think.
Here's the inspiration- how did I do?

And Wee Memories' challenge is to use patterned paper this week...check!
And don't forget to head over to May Arts & leave a comment for the weekend giveaway! :DThanks for stopping by- happy hopping!!

Lovely card, I really like the striped paper and the ribbon is a nice touch.
