My First Elizabeth Bell

Hi there, just a quick post i'm afraid! This is my first card using an EB stamp and i've forgotten the name of it. I coloured with Promarkers and pierced around the edge. The border was punched out with MS art deco fan edge punch and also pierced. Ribbon is from my stash and the sentiment is from Sentiments 4 You. The DPs and other elements are all digital from the lovely Heather Jolly. The flower at the bottom right hand corner is Prima.
