There is a new challenge over at the Crafty Catz.
We have not sponsor this time so it's just for fun.
But the theme is use ribbon.
To create the frame round the edge of this card I have used a Sweet Poppy stencils called Twisted Vine Square. I fitted it into the top right corner and inked it, then the bottom left and inked, so it doesn't have too be used as just a square. I masked it all off each time to make sure the ink didn't go in places I didn't want it. I used distress ink to make the frame. Then the Thistles is a stamp also from Sweet Poppy, stamped in a no line ink pad by stamps by me. I've then water coloured the image using Sweet Poppy Watercolour brush pens set 2. Then there is the ribbon and bow, plus a sentiment.
I would like to enter this in the following challenges
