Hey Everyone! I cleaned my studio on Saturday and it seems like it stifled my creativity. Yes, I like 'organized chaos!' As I looked around my clean work spaces, I did not see anything to grab and work in a small 6" square foot space! So, I was not sure if I would be able to be inspired enough to create something for Waltzingmouse Stamps' Blog Waltz. But, hours and a few mistakes later, here it is! The biggest mistake I made was that I had an additional sentiment at the bottom that stated, "You are my best friend." That obviously did not make sense with the "Friend" sentiment! So, I just removed it! Anyway, thanks so much for waltzing by today. Here are some card details.
Instructions
- Trim patterned paper to 4" x 5.25".
- Adhere doily.
- Stamp flourish pattern on vintage tag, then adhere over top of doily.
- Stamp flower and leaf, color, then cut out and adhere on vintage tag.
- Add ribbon treatment.
- Add pearls.

I can't see your pics from my computer at work for some reason - so I had to wait till I got home tonight to comment!
You have the coolest layouts EVER, Ashley! I would never think to layer things the way you do! Love the angles, and the beautiful printed tag. The colors are amazing, that flower just POPS off of my screen!
I absolutely LOVE your style...not just on this card, but all of your designs. I'm a big fan. This is so perfect - classy and clean. Marvelous!!
I am glad you overcame the neatness challenge to create this lovely card. Well done!
Fabulous! This is so beautiful - I love the overall look - you surprised me that you struggled with it - I had this impression that creativity just oozes from your pores! LOL

This is a really great card; Just enough frills to call it vintage chic, but not too over done! Love it!
for someone that was "stumped" you surely created a beyond beautiful for words card. I love your use of the tag and how you created a bg with the fun swirls. the colors are sweet & fresh. thanks for being a constant source of inspiration, ashley.
Ashley this is such a classy card. It is so soft and sweet.
Absolute perfection! I love everything about it!
Gorgeous - that little flourish makes such a pretty background - must get mine inky. I'm loving all the doilies in blog land recently - an embellishment we can all get our hands on!
Oh, Ashley, this is just beautiful!
Gorgeous Ashley! Love the tag and rose combination!
Love your stunning card, Ashley! Wish I could work in a clean space ~ just can't do it as creatively as you, so I guess I'll keep my space messy (:o) THAT'S my excuse and I'm sticking to it!
Lovely card. Love the tag and doily.
How gorgeous! I love the vintage look of this card! Thanks for sharing!
