Papertrey Blog Hop woo hoo !!

First ever Blog Hop challenge!!

HOW FUN is this-- you can see the challenge post HERE

It was to utilize ribbon as a focal point on a card.

PLEASE participate and VOTE for your favorites!!! There should be some really neat stuff to check out!! here

I used American Crafts Ribbons for this challenge to make the flower. I wanted a patterned one and a thicker plain one so I dug in my stash of hoarded ribbon for these gorgeous babies!!!

I just kinda doodled it by hand then punched holes to feed the ribbon through. I used Beautiful Blooms for the petals and sentiment. Cardstock is Papertrey, Bazzill and Stampin Up, Ink is Palette- Button is American crafts, brads are making memories.

I had the hardest time getting a good photo due to the sheen on the ribbon but I LOVE bright colours so no regrets!!!
