I have a few fun projects on my blog today, so I hope you'll stop by and see this card... (I love the feminine touch of this Sheer Ruffle Edge ribbon!).....and this card..... (I thought the rustic look of the Jute Ribbon would be a good pairing with a masculine image....)
I literally gasped when I saw the Turquoise/Brown Sheer ribbon I used on the card below - these are my 2 favorite colors, and what better way to tie together a beautiful color combination on a card than to have those colors together in the trim? Amazing.
I used several sets from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps to fill the focal panel of my card - You Tags, Butterfly Flourish, Vintage Postcard, and Friendship Script Background. The panel is watercolored using Derwent watercolor pencils. I masked the butterflies with a Sakura glaze pen so I could ink up the background more easily, and added some dimension with a Viva pearl pen.
I tied a double bow with my Bow Easy - love that little tool.
Thank you so much for inviting me to share!!
