Fresh Vintage & Everyday Enchantment Ribbon Card

This card was made with two of my favorite products from the new Sale-A-Bration catalog that went live on the 24th!

• The stamps are from the new Fresh Vintage Stamp Set. 
  
  
  
  Want to know a secret? 
  
  I love the short 'border' stamp in this set, but I'm terrible about taking out my Stamp-a-ma-jig to line up stamps perfectly.  I originally wanted to run veritcal stripes down my base card stock, but the very first stamp went askew.  Instead of restarting the card, I ran with it - simply putting each of my stamped images at a tilt! 
  
  Another tip:  this stamp does not run the full width of the card, I consciously placed each of my 'joins' at the same level of the card so that they would be partially masked by my wrapped ribbon and the larger image. 
  
  
• The ribbon is from the Everyday Enchantment Ribbon & Brad Pack
  
  
  
  This pack gives you two full spools of 1/8" Organdy Ribbon with 10 yards on each spoo - both the Calypso Coral which I used on this card and Lucky Limeade.  
  
  It also includes a package of 30 Printed Designer Brads - 6 each of 5 different designs.  I'm currently using these brads as the centers for some felt flower hairclips I'm creating for my Spring Craft Fair in March, but I'll share those on another date.

Great idea on how to use a border strip stamp! I love that you just ran with the skew to. The only time I would get a straight stamped image would probably be when I am going for an askewed look. This is a really beautiful card!
