Ombre Blossoms

Even though I make a lot of cards and always have a box of grab-and-go cards ready to choose from, I always like to make special cards, designed with a special person in mind. I made this card for my Mum's birthday (you can't get a more special person than that, right?).
I actually made this card at Stamp Camp, and I didn't have all my coloured cardstock with me, so can you believe that this card has been made using only white cardstock? I die-cut all the flowers and stems in white cardstock, and then used sponges and ink to colour them. I love the soft, variegated effect it gives. As they say, necessity is the mother of invention!
The ombre ribbon was the perfect match for these flowers! I liked it so much, I had to make a blue version:

I used embossing paste and brick stencil for my background. It was so quick, and I love the texture that it adds.
Hopefully Mum liked her card :)
