Today's card is made using the Artiste cartridge and the June Stamp of the Month called Flowering Bunch.
This card was very easy to throw together. However, I kept looking at it thinking it needed something else, but never could figure out what that something is was. I cannot get enough of the pattern of the cuttlebug folder I used! I keep seeing similar patterns in home decor items and in fabric. TRIPLE love it!

Cardstock used is from Close To My Heart (butercup, sweet leaf, lagoon, white, and crystal blue). |
I used the stamp of the month and Close To My Heart inks (creme brule and topiary). |
I used my cuttlebug and an embossing folder from the Decorative Tiles set. |
For the inside of the card I used lagoon and creme brule ink. |
This week's prize is the Create A Critter 2 cartridge.
