random cards

Trying to use up some pre-embossed cards that i purchased at Michaels quite awhile ago.  I’ve decided the cardstock is to flimsy to use as a full card.  The colors bleed through etc.  I cut off the sentiment side of the card and attached the colored part to some cardstock of my own and it turned out really nice, I think.  i was so glad to find that scrap of gold and silver ribbon that really makes this card.  The ribbon is slate gray from SU. 
Here are a couple of flower cards to enter into Simon's Work It Wednesday Challenge for April.
