I decided to use one of the small text images from the Hero Arts, Dictionary Greetings, clear set. I used a negative die cut technique for the text and added a flower image from the Blossom Art set. I stamped it all around the background of the card, in a light gray color. The ribbon was on a gift from a friend and it was the perfect shade of soft gray. The gems I used were a gift from a Flickr friend. . .I just wish I could remember who it was! Love them!
Thanks for stopping by today! :)

Very elegant, neutral colors, love your use of the negative die cut! I always forget to save those and use it on another project, such a great idea!
Love the color scheme and how you used the flower and text stamps. The gems and the ribbon add extra depth to the card. Super!!
Great take on this fun challenge, Barb! So glad that you were inspired to join it! Best of luck! I was a bit afraid of these colors, but it was kind of fun, wasn't it?
Man, that light gray color is gorgeous, Barb! Love that :) This card is so beautiful- you could do something similar for a wedding!
Elegant - those little gems in the circles are so unique and just a perfect touch for your card. LOVELY!
Such a beautiful card Barb, it is subtle but at the same time it holds an elegance, black and white can sometimes do that. Highlighting your words with bling is effective, great idea.
Smiles;)
