Dude ... where's the ribbon?

OK, I'm going with these photos ... they are like the twelfth that I've taken ... and well, I'm done. I have soooo got to make some sort of camera hood. They are waaaaay too yellow. Anyway, I'm hosting this month's Secret Sister Monthly Image Swap. I picked this one partly because I was pretty sure that everyone would like it and also because Stampavie's images stamp so easily (and that's kinda important when you are stamping 45 images at a time!).

My card was a no-brainer. I wanted a darkish card with my two current favorite SU colors: Cherry Cobbler and the new Expresso. I doodled on the Cherry Cobbler with my white pen and used pop dots to raise the teddy bear again and then his face ... AGAIN! I liked it, stepped away and suddenly remembered the white organza ribbon that I challenged everyone to use. Whoops. I'm blaming the pain meds ... it is NOT senility. Yep, that's my story!

Sooo, back to the drawing board. I made THIS gate-fold card to satisfy the challenge (note to my sistahs: I ran out of the silver ribbon sending it to y'all)





Supplies:
Stamps: Stampavie, SU
Punches: Martha, SU corner punches, Oval Nesties
Embellishments: flowers, copics, brads, pop dots, white gel pen

  1. I love both of them and especially love your doodles. Great job on both. They are beautiful and I love those colors too. The inside of the second card is so pretty.
