Stampin B's Challenge - Use a Die Cut

This week our hostess for the Stampin B's Design Team, faith aka markie's mom, gave the challenge #93 to use a die cut. O.K., mine is small, but it is there. I used the Spellbinders Blossom die cut to make a sentiment piece. If you would like to play along, and we hope you will, just use the inlinkz to upload your card.

Most of my card is made from paper and images from Mark's Finest Papers. I really didn't want to cover that beautiful rose on my paper but just couldn't be helped. I love that paper. I did a little distressing on the panel behind my heart and wish I had done more. Don't know about you but I love that crinkled ribbon. I'll have to be careful not to put it on every card. LOL

I am also entering my card into these challenges:

Woodware USA #9 - Use Hearts
One Stitch at a Time #9 - Love and Valentine
Bunny Zoe Crafts #8- Love is in the Air

Recipe:
Stamp: Heart and sentiment is from Mark's Finest Papers-Hearts, Hearts, Hearts
Paper: PTI cream cardstock, all other paper is from Mark's Finest Papers -Grandma's Hope Chest
Ink: Memento-Potter's Clay
Accessories: crinkle ribbon, Flower and brad included in Grandma's Hope Chest paper pkg. from Mark's Finest Papers, Spellbinders blossom die cut

What a beautiful Valentine, Benzi! I love your fabulous (if tiny--LOL!) die cut for the StampinB challenge. These colors are beautifully soft and muted. The ribbon and flower are just amazing. Nicely done!

A stunning card Benzi. Love the crinkle ribbon and the gorgeous Rose paper - I can see why you didn't want to cover it up. Thank you for sharing with us at OSAAT this week. Hugs, Sylvia xxx

Where do you buy crinkle ribbon? Or do you crinkle it yourself? And I love these flowers you've been using on this card and the newest butterfly one; are they all from MFP? I like 'em a lot!

This is such a different look, but I love it! The DP is so pretty and that ribbon is really the current rage! I've never seen it in stores before, so I'm assuming you created it yourself? Very pretty card, well done!
