365 cards day 84 card recipe 2

Today on 365 cards Kelly has given us a recipe:

1 3x3 card
1 flower
1 brad
1 piece of ribbon
1 stamped sentiment
and NO PATTERNED PAPER!

I made a 3 x 3 white card and sprayed randomly with adirondack cranberry color wash. I then added the velvet ribbon, flower and brad and then stamped the sentiment using Brilliance pearlescent crimson embossed with clear detail.

This is also good for the current challenge on Our Creative Corner: 'sentiments', the idea being to use a sentiment as the focal point of the card.

Now I need to make an envie for it because I don't have any that small.
