The Rubber Maid: It's Timless Tuesday..flower, ribbon, tag

Well did you miss me last week when I went AWOL?? Bet you thought some strong, handsome, wonderful mountain man stole me into the wilds and showed me the time of my life....NOT! I took my fantasy pill this morning and I'm a little off as usual. I just said to myself...if you don't want to stamp you don't have to and so I didn't. So this week at Flourishes we are to follow the lead of that adorable Miss Cindy (you know that wild Canadian) and do a card which has a flower, tag, and ribbon on it. I used " Meet me Under the Mistletoe" ( wow would I ever love that) and stamped and colored the mistletoe with my faithful colored pencils. The sentiment is from " A Gift for You" and it fit the tag perfectly so that's why I chose it silly. Now I also know you are going to tell me that the berries on the branch are not red but rather white BUT I wanted to go with a red to match up my card nicely. I embossed my bg paper with a flowerly die and to my little flower added a little sparkly stone like thingy. Easy peasy with not much to do but measure our the mats. Hope you are off to a good week...I'm just off as usual.
