Flower Power

Posted on April 21, 2011 by artisticavenger

Today’s card is my design team contribution to this week’s challenge at Create with Connie and Mary. I loved the sketch and actually made a completely different card forgetting that SAB is now over so I had to come up with something else!

I wanted to use various types of ribbon all in one colour and decided that making a flower was probably the best option for this so that is what I did! I used three different types of Rich Razzleberry ribbon, made loops and adhered altogether with a brad through a Boho Blossom.

I even used ribbon for the stem and leaves! Fun, huh?

Now lets see what you all come up with! Head on over to Create with Connie and Mary and play along with us!
