I thought I'd pop in with a card I finished just now. I wanted to try this new ribbon I bought yesterday which you cut to length and then pull the stitching which is only along one edge and it folds itself into a little ruffle flower! Let me show you the card so you can get the drift!
Isn't it cool? It's probably been availble for 100 years, but it was a fun discovery for me yesterday and it's only $1.20 a metre! BARGAIN! It comes in 3 colours - White, Pink and Blue and I got a few metres of each.
I've used Elegant Eggplant, Kraft, Melon Mambo, Kiwi Kiss and Lavender Lace on this card as well as stamps by Papertrey Ink! I don't think I have EVER used Lavender Lace before but it looks quite ok here I think!
Anyhooooooo just a simple little card today which I hope you'll like! With any luck I'll be back later in the week! Thanks for stopping by today!
