A Lacey Birthday Card

My very wonderful sister sent me a super sweet JustRite/ Amazing Paper Grace and stamp set called "It's Sew Vintage" and the matching Spellbinders dies. I was so happy when it arrived because I wanted something to go with a dress form stamp and this set is perfect! I used kraft cardstock because I like the vintage look it has, and it's so pretty used with white. I made the blue flower by cutting a strip of Webster Page's netting and running a stitch along the edge and pulling it to gather up the edge.

I used another stamp from the set for the sentiment and added the banner stamp from the JR Botanical Medallions and Banners set. I used the same Spellbinders die that's on the outside of the card to emboss the inside and then I cut a matching piece out of pink MME paper. I never tried this before and I like how  the pink piece looks embedded in the card
