This week's challenge was to use ribbon in a unique way... Ruffles aren't SO unique, but it's something I don't do every day, so that's the special ribbon "technique" I chose to do on this card:
Now I know this card is dreadfully simple, but it's the colours that are making me LOVE it. I used a couple different papers that are BRAND NEW from Pink Paislee. The first paper is actually called a "postcard" and is from this sheet that includes a whole bunch of different sentiments, images and frames for you to use on a project. I stamped the sentiment (hero arts) in the centre of the circle and it looks like it came that way! So awesome. The bottom of the card is from this sheet of heart-clouds that are so cute, not to mention versatile.. Lastly, the pleated ribbon from May Arts adds some dimension and a secondary focal point that takes the card from "nice" to "WOW.." or at least "VERY nice.." hahaha...
Check out the DT (especially all of the NEW girls) for more ribbony inspiration. If you want to play along, link your card to this Jacksonbelle post. Take care!!
