Hi there! Knocking around the ole studio today I put together a card to show using two of my favorite colors. By the way, do you have any idea how hard it is to match red, ugh…thus my black embossed sentiment :-) I’m working today with two new sets from Our Daily Bread Designs called Never Thirst and Brocade Borders. The sentiment and frame panel is cut out close to the stamping around the curves and contours of the frame using one of the Brocade Border Die Cuts from Our Daily Bread Designs.
I used my Martha Stewart border punch to cut the flap on the front of the card. I used an EK Success Punch down the left side of the card which made a great set up for the pearls. Using two different round EK Success punches I cut the hole in the flap, threaded the ribbon through and tied a bow.

Beautiful card. I love to wear red and black, too! Did you tuck the flap around the card or under it before everything was glued down? Your cards are so gorgeous!

Oh so pretty! Love the lacy edge and how you made the front to look like and envelope flap. Very pretty indeed!
What a beautiful card! I love the use of all the wonderful punches! We so often forget to use them…. well, I do. I love the label it’s all so frilly! TFS
I love this card & really, all the cards you do. Is there somewhere on your blog that you show how you tie your bows?? They are gorgeous.
Gorgeous card! I never try to match colours! Doesn’t work. I use gold, silver, black or complementary colours or white on dark. It’s one less pain to deal with when creating! I love your design and all the pretty pearls. They are always so elegant!
Thanks for sharing! :o)
Another breathtaking beauty. You give my such inspiration.
Wow, another beautiful card. I don’t know where your inspiration comes from but your cards are always amazing.
so pretty, love the flap!
Beautiful card – that flap is gorgeous!! It looks difficult but very elegant!!
Oh how I know how hard it is to match reds. I did my nursery in my home for my twin granddaughters in red and black and discovered there are so many shades of red. Everytime I started a new project in there and tried to match the red, it was a struggle. I did it though. This card reminds me alot of the my crib bedding. I might just send you a picture.

Becca, BEAUTIFUL card! How the Lord has graced you with talent and creativity!! Absolutely GORGEOUS! Wonderful design and colors!
Another beauty Becca – I know what you mean about matching Red – it often gives me a headache too!!! Love how you did the flap and all the pearl detailing!!
As always a beautiful card. I would love to know the name of the Martha punch you used?
Becca, such a beautiful card. I would also love know the names of the Martha Stewart and EK Success punches you used… Could not find them on their web sites.
Yeah! I found the Martha Stewart Punch at Michael’s, its called the Swirling Lace Punch.
