You should be coming to my blog from Ginny's Blog. (For the complete blog list, scroll to the bottom of the post.)
Here is a peeky at the RRR April Ribbon Club. Lots of "hot" colors! If you have not checked out the club before, I encourage you to do so. It is a nice bag of ribbon each month, the price is out of this world! Only $9 for US shipments! That is an awesome deal for about 14 yards of ribbon! That's 64 cents a yard!
I had two images colored for use with this ribbon set, but I chose blues that were either too denim or too aqua and had to start over!
I ended up making this card with Graphic 45 Bird Song paper. I love the turquoise blue next to the black and other colors in the paper.
The turquoise sheer organza with satin center ribbon is so pretty. I want to hoard it! I wrapped some of the turquoise diamond satin around the card just to "anchor" all the items I glued to the card.
I poked around in my stash and dragged out a bunch of die cut templates that have not seen the light of day in a while (or ever) and made a little focal point on the card. I just purchase all those yummy flowers this week. So pretty.
