Stamping Up Card - It's Beautiful

Have I ever told you I struggle with any shade of purple? well I do, I never seem to like a card that I make from purple to the shade pale lavender.
I thought I would try to break the habit of this and try another one.
This was made using the Stamp Wheel It's Beautiful by Stamping Up, the base card is white then on a piece of pale lavender card I used the stamp wheel with versamark and white embossing powder I used the cuttlebug to emboss across the top of the card then tied a white ribbon just below the embossed pattern.
I used the round Nestabilities to cut the two circles and stamped one of the images from the Stamping Up Silhouettes. the scalloped edge on the pale lavender card was made using the fiskers threading water punch.

Its a very pretty card Jak.Well done! Can I ask you, when you make your cards do you do A6? I was just wondering as you use your cuttlebug a lot and I know they are designed for smaller cards, A6, but I know there is only the swiss dots folder that can be matched up effectively for lager cards, but then I was puzzled as I thought you only made larger cards?

It is very elegant, Jak. The shade of lilac you've used makes it very delicate.
