Finished 5" X 7" Friendship Card.....

I'm here to share with  you the finished card that I displayed on Wednesday.  It was in pieces then and now it is all ready to be sent on it's way.  It is rather bulky and will need to be sent in a box but I think it turned out beautifully and after all flowers in nature and not usually flat.


My card is 5" X 7" and I made a seam binding bow to grace the bottom corner.  I colored the seam binding to match the greenery.  I always have a whole roll of the seam binding  in  my drawer just for a card like this one when the bow really does need to match.  I love how the grapevine leaves turned out and I think they sort of look like ivy.  The flower is made using the Arianna Blooms stamps and dies from Heartfelt Creations.  The sentiment is from Cornish Heritage Farms back in 2009.  It's really hard to believe that many years have passed and this is the first time I'm actually using these stamps.  Shame on me!

It is simply gorgeous and I'm so happy to see the finished product! Stunning! Those leaves are very versatile because they do look like ivy, but they look like grape leaves, too. Either way they're fabulous on your card!
