Going GREEN!


Here is a card that I made for a birthday swap! Notice~ I just had to throw in some green!!! {smiles} Be sure and check out Savvy Projects Blog where you will find LOTS of GREEN this week!!!


For the ribbon~ I put double stick tape across the entire back. I adhered a little of the ribbon to begin...and then folded the ribbon back and forth...to create a "wave" look.



Here you can see a few variations. I used two different ribbons...and on one card the ribbon is flat.

I hope you are inspired to stamp and create!

Supplies: Tail Feathers, Simply Divine, Elizabeth Blossoms & Buttons, Black & White Ribbon, All Metal Paper Piercer, Brilliance Moonlight White, Noir Black Palette Ink Pad

Very pretty, neat with the candle, but wondering how that would hold up in the mail? Love the different ribbons you used and the wave!
