Great Impressions challange

                                       
                                          July Challenge: Use Your Favorite Stamp

This is a new challenge for me and I don't have any Great Impression Stamps, but my good friend has just been made a Member of the Design Team and since she has encouraged me in the past, I want to support her in her work. 
You may have guessed her name by this time, if not, it is Donna Phelan!  I am so happy for her and she will do a great job.

You can fine the challenge Here and it is a monthly challenge, so you have time to enter.

For this challenge you are to use your favorite stamp.  That was the hard part, as there are so many!
I looked into my gallery at STV and noted that I often use the Sunflower stamp from Melanie Muenchinger.  So I made this simple card for this challenge. 


































Recipe;
Charcoal Brown heavy weight card stock for the base
White layering weight for the oval
Spellbinder Floral Oval die
Stamp set GKD Stately Flowers 5
Ribbon from my stash

Thanks for stopping by and as always I do appreciate your comments.
