Ribbon is one of my favorite embellishments. It seems that 90 % of my projects have ribbon on them, but I have a secret to share, would you believe that I finished and photographed my card and then went to post on the team group and that was when I realized that I had not used ribbon!
I think I was distracked by the cute image from our sponsor The Paper Shelter. This image is called Cirque. They have a whole line of images that take you back to the circus. I love this little baton girl. I can just see her leading the parade as the circus comes to town.
I used a beloved SB to to cut the image and mat. the banner is a Tim Holtz die. The sentiment is Hot Off the Press. The corner die is a CB.
For my spray, I used a SB die to cut the yellow leaves. The stick pin is another that I recieved from the stick pin swap that I recently particapated in. Isn't it lovely? The flower is Recollections.
The forgotten bow was tied with my trusty Bow Easy.
I have another secret about this card. It is upside down on the card base, which means that I will be prying it off with Undo later tonight. LOL The image really is distrackingly cute.
