Hi there, today's card is for this weeks challenge at the Do You Stack Up Challenge Blog.
The challenge this week is:
Ribbon
I chose to use an image from Bugaboo which just makes me laugh! It's called One Person to Annoy and you can get it here.
I thought I'd find a spotty paper to match her dress. Our challenge was to use ribbon. I decided to make a ribbon flower. First I sewed a running stitch down the middle of the burgandy ribbon and pulled it to make the little flower. Then I ran a running stitch down one edge of the grey ribbon and pulled at that to make the main layered flower. I added the burgandy to the top and secured them to the card with a vintage looking brad from Stampin Up. I love the pretty delicate nature of the flower teamed with no-nonsense Stella.
This is the inside of the card!
And another close up of the flower.
How true and I love the naughty and clever card

This is such a cute card Jo! Thanks for the info on how you made the flower--I would have thought it was store bought. I have got to sit down and make some of these. Super idea on the inside label. I may have to CASE that!
