DRS Designs Thursday Challenge and more

Hi Everyone,

This Thursday the challenge at DRS Designs is to use ribbon on your card. Recently I watched a video on Stamp TV that showed how to use ribbon, baker's twine and a button together. I think I should have been able to figure this out on my own, but...  Here's my card for today's challenge.

As you can see I made another CAS card!  The white card base is layered with some Real Red card stock and then some white that was embossed with the CB snowflake folder. The red gingham ribbon is taped on the back of the red layer. Some baker's twine is wrapped around the ribbon and then threaded through the button and tied into a bow. I like the look of this. I don't use buttons very often on my cards, but I think that may be changing!  The God's Love sentiment was stamped in black on white, cut with a square nestie and then layered on a real red lacy square also cut with nesties.

DRS Designs is also sponsoring this week's Cupcake Inspiration Challenge. Here's the card I made for this inspiration challenge. I also used this week's Tuesday Morning Sketch Challenge.

I love this invisible snowman image and thought he fit perfectly with the cupcake challenge. I also used the new Christmas Blessings sentiment and the Open Plaid in red and green.

Thanks for stopping by! We'd love to have you join us in the challenge this week. You can see the details here.

Until next time,
