Raspberry Color Challenge #16
Woah, it’s been a long time since I have participated in one of Dawn’s color challenges! I have been keeping up with them, but in between no creativity and lack of time, I haven’t been able to play along.
This week the color challenge was fairly easy for me (yay!). At work I was trying to come with ideas- this one was my favorite, so I decided to give it a try. I’m so glad that it turned out how I wanted it to! Do you ever have ideas in your head that seem fantastic but when you go to give it a try, it goes horribly wrong? This seems to happen to me too often, so glad today wasn’t one of those days!
I saw this Ruffled Ribbon technique on Lisa’s blog and I HAD to give it a try. Oh. My. Goodness. Now I am absolutely addicted to ruffling all my saddle stitch ribbons! I have already made five cards featuring this technique- you’ll be seeing them in future posts.
Well, in closing this post, just wanted to plug my HUGE blog candy– a Cuttlebug machine with embossing folders. Be sure to check it out!!
my instant reaction: “omg this is so cute”…you truly did a great job, and I took a quick peek around your site, your designs are fab!! i’ll definitely be back!
