A Monochromatic Card

The challenge at The Pretty Little Ribbon blog is to make a monochromatic item, using ribbon, of course.  Here's my entry, using one of my favorite colors, this lavender/blue/periwinkle:


supplies: periwinkle and white card stock, Hero Arts stamps CG271 Large Blossom, versamark ink and white embossing powder, S5264 Antique Flower Background, Papertrey Ink Tiny Tags dies and stamps, Brilliance pearlescent lavender ink, Martha Stewart small monarch butterfly punch, periwinkle seam binding


Entering this also into Simon Says Stamp and Show's Anything Goes challenge.
