Paper Piecing Fifth Avenue Floral

Good Morning! I hope everyone had a good weekend. The weather was gorgeous and I even had to cut my grass. YUCK!

I know I have used this set a lot lately, but for some reason it lends itself to so many techniques and you can make so many gorgeous cards with it. The Flourishes blog has a paper piecing challenge. I decided to use the lily from Fifth Avenue Floral to do some paper piecing in purple and yellow. I used Tea Party and So Saffron DS paper. I also added a rub-on in Old Olive along the side. I thought the final element needed to be a satin ribbon for a touch of elegance. I am sorry for the blurring picture of the inside of the card. For some reason I am not able to get a clear picture of the inside of white cards. Anybody have an ideas to help me out? Here is my creation.
