Hello! Happy last Saturday of November! Less than a month until Christmas now! I hope your doing better than me as I am sick! Currently I have no voice and for me this is the WORST THING EVER! I am very talkative and I miss being able to talk! Expect this to be a very wordy post! All in all I haven't felt absolutely horrible and I have been getting better fast (although how long does it take for one's voice to come back already!) I didn't have any fevers and haven't been confined to my bed or anything. The worst of it is losing my voice. I miss talking!
I am here with another Wee Memories Scrappy Saturday Challenge! This week our challenge is Bowtiful Ribbon! And our sponsor is Charleston Scrapbook Company! Such a wonderful prize they have provided for our winner, a bow maker!
I love this week's challenge as I love ribbon on my cards and I think most of us do! I went with a Christmas card as I am currently making a lot of them these days!
I started with a cream card which I distressed the edges with vintage photo (TH), than I stamped the magical background (HA) on top in the vintage photo. I stamped the trees with the vintage photo also and colored with green inks by memento. The brown panel was embossed with a snowflake folder by Cuttlebug, here is a close up:
After I embossed it I inked it with my versmark pad to add definition to the raised embossing since the paper is so dark. It really helps bring attention to it! I tied a red ribbon in a bow and finished it with a silver snowflake!
