My first Sugar Nellie card!

My lovely Mum bought me the "Daisy" Sugar Nellie stamp for my birthday, and this is the first card I've made with it!!

I coloured the image using my Promarkers, and used some downloaded purple flowery paper from Cuddly Buddly for the background. The yellow ribbon, photo brad thingy and green flowers are all from the Papermania Capsule collections. I've just added some little brads for the flower centres. Apologies for the dog hair in the middle of the card - he gets everywhere!
