SKETCH 43: RIBBON!



Wow. Can you believe it's Thursday already?!? I can't, but I'm thrilled! I need a weekend! We spent last weekend with our awesome group of students from church (husband is the youth pastor) at Fuge Winter Camp! What a WONDERFUL time of spiritual refreshment and growth, along with group building! Oh! And a TOTAL lack of SLEEP! LOL! So I'm ready for a weekend again... ;)

I created a fun, wacky card that is a little uncharacteristic for me. I created a birthday card for a student in my class, which explains the colors and all! I used Basic Grey Lime Rickey patterned paper for the base (layered onto white cardstock for strength). The ribbon, our focus this week, is a length of yellow wrinkled ribbon... I LOVE this stuff! Really! It is so easy to use, and it actually has something of a silk look to it. (For much cheaper!) The "Bday" sticker is a Pebbles, Inc. goodie from the Snapshot Birthday Stickers. These would obviously be great for a scrapbook page, too! :) The "FUN" letters are the White Chocolate Basic Grey chipboard letters. Very versatile font, I think.


Now it's your turn!
