DYSU #56- Ribbons

Hi everyone, today brings us another challenge from Do You Stack Up Challenge Blog, and this week, we have a theme of 'Ribbons', so any creation must include a ribbon.


This week the Design Team were given some images to play with, and I chose this sweet bear couple by Crafty Sentiments.



I have coloured this sweet image with Promarkers, and cut with a Nestabilities Labels 3, then cut a frame in purple embossed paper from Papermania.




I then layered a piece of patterned kraft paper from Craftwork Cards onto some purple Core'dinations card.




Then taking some seam binding in Walnut and Lady Lavender (from The Ribbon Reel) I wrapped three strips and some purple baker's twine around the bottom of the panel before adhering the panel to the card base.

I then added three Tiny Tags to the twine, with the sentiments 'Smile, Enjoy, Adore' from Papertrey Ink.




I finally added some purple gems and a beautiful Purple Gardenia from The Ribbon Reel.


These are the prizes available from our sponsors this week:-

The Ribbon Reel - £10 Gift Voucher



The Stamping Boutique - Winners choice of five images




Dearie Dolls - Winners choice of four images




Crafty Sentiments - Winner's choice of four sentiments






Supplies Used:

Paper: Pearlescent white card from stash; Kraft Fusion Paper Pack - Craftwork Cards; Purple Core'dinations card from stash; Neenah Solar Classic Crest White Card - Crafter's Companion


Inks: Versamagic Plum


Ribbon: Lady Lavender and Walnut Seam Binding - The Ribbon Reel; Purple Baker's Twine - The Ribbon Reel
