I'm so glad it's Friday! Yaaaay! Starting this weekend, I'm going to start celebrating my "Blogiversary!" On Monday, it will be 1 year since I started blogging and creating consistently. I've enjoyed every moment and have accomplished a lot. I appreciate each of my blog readers. To celebrate, I plan to have a few freebies up for grabs. Please check back frequently to cash in on some goodies and fun!
Anyway, today's card is a vintage style and uses Dawn's damask set again. I never thought I'd stamp over top polka dot, but this new bitty dot paper is perfect for that!
Have a good weekend!

- Trim close to cocoa cardstock to A2 greeting size and distress edges of card.
- Trim ocean tides bitty dots pattern paper into a rectangle.
- Stamp damask designs and sentiment on pattern paper.
- Distress pattern paper using paper distresser, ripping, and chalks.
- Trim melon berry cardstock to fit below bitty dots paper.
- Add loop trim.
- Tie ribbon into a bow.
- Add flower.
- Adhere to card front.
