Pretty Paper

Did you know that a cardmaker's brain is divided into specific sections? The region of the gray matter that I relate to today is that part that takes up a large portion as well as our craft space/storage and that is the paper area. Cardmakers love everything about paper. We revel in its size, shape, weight, texture and color. What is really amazing is the lengths we go to change its size, shape, texture and color!  On the downside, there is the offshoot  of that very same area that cringes each time the said paper is cut. But ask yourself, wouldn't the world be boring if no attempt was ever made to change the appearance of paper?

    I really like this card-- Very simple yet really pretty- and that ribbon gives it a nice little edge to it.

    *Yes, I'm a paper addict and I had cutting into new paper....
    :(
