I'm so sorry I didn't realize there was a prize for participating this week at For Fun and am updating this post to show what you can win by playing along with us.
Happy Wednesday!
This week we have a great challenge for you at For Fun sponsored by Craft Brulee. Anything goes - but - you must use a ribbon of some type somewhere on your card or project.
That's it, easy-peasey.
That's it, easy-peasey.
OMG, you've just got to go see what the design team at For Fun has come up with. Talk about some fantastic inspirational projects - they've really got it together. Please check it out cause I know ya won't be disappointed when you see the lovely altered art bird cage by Amelia.
That's the only sneak peek from me tonight...........LOL
The DP is from Once Upon a Time paper pack, I think from DCWV. The beautiful flower is from Craft Brulee. Now don't faint - I've put sentiments on my card this time (I can't believe it either) but I wanted that flower to be the main focus on the card. The stamps are one of the first ones I purchased a long time ago and I have no idea where they came from. They were stamped with embossing ink and then heat set with Ranger Ultra Fine Gold embossing powder. I added gold Stickles to each corner of the die cut for that extra bling. Then to top it off, I wanted the amber heart gems from my stash to come as close to matching the center stone on the flower so I covered them with Lime Green Stickles.
A BIG thank you to Marie at Paper Cupcakes for this fantastic sketch. Thanks a bunch Marie!!!!
That's it from me this morning - short and sweet. Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope to see ya again soon. Hope you have the time to leave me a comment so I can pop on over and see what lovely new creations are on your blog. Hope I've made sense cause I'm pooped tonight!

I am not a huge brown hue fan but your card has won me over! Love the softness of it! Beautiful flower and textures on your card!
Stunning card, Carol. I love browns and the background paper is just awesome.

It's good enough to eat, (or maybe I'm just hungry)but the chocolate colours with the gold splashes of bling are wonderful. I didn't faint when I seen the sentiments on your fantastic card as they look super and I adore embossing as it always creates a very rich feel. *Hugs*
