Blogger's Challenge--ribbon or lace

This week Lisa our group MOM wanted us to use ribbon or lace on our challenge entry.  Well that is easy as I add ribbon to most of my cards--of course she may have wanted us to do something extraordinary with that ribbon or lace but I will pretend THAT never crossed my mind,  shhhh.  You can find more details for the challenge on Lisa's blog.

I am so loving this new set--I know I probably said that already but I LOVE it.  I combined this with the Sketch Frenzy Sketch challenge for the week--only problem is it is LAST week's sketch.  Go figure, forgot this is Friday so a new one is being posted, lol.  Oh well here is the sketch I followed



Stamps: The Open Sea, Teeny Tiny Wishes, On your Birthday
Paper: Not Quite Navy, Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White
Ink: Basic Black, Whisper White
Other: buttons, baker's twine, ribbon, label punch, sponges

Come on and play along with us.  It's a blog hop!!!

This is wonderful! Love the ribbon treatment....I still have a bunch of those buttons left, too!! (So, you may just see this idea CASEd!) You've so inspired me with this set, that it is now a part of my collection as well! (Not sure if I should thank you or not.)
