Crafty Ribbons #4 Spring Time

I am so loving the Crafty Ribbon Challenges!
It has given me the chance to play with some beautiful Ribbons
and to use some colours
that I normally wouldn't go for!

This challenge is Spring Time

I so love the pale blue Butterfly one
you can see there!

they ask that in return for these lush
ribbons you send them two cards you
have made using the ribbons for that theme.

Anyway I have made three cards.....

I have used a button as the centre as Crafty Ribbons
sell buttons at Crafty Buttons too.

I have picked the colours out of the ribbon bow
for the flowers on this card.
I must admit the ribbons are wider
than what I normally use,
I love using thiner ribbons on my cards.
I have used a tiny piece of
orange Gingham in her hair.

This third card I have made using
a photo fron the Crafty Ribbons website.
It is flowers made from Ribbons.


I have really enjoyed using the
ribbon as the inspiration,
rather than making the card first and
then adding the ribbon as an embellishment.

I have also made a folded paper tag book.
I used chalk inks to burnish the mount board cover.

The colours of the papers inside are from the
flowers I cut out from the Ribbon.
Again I have used photo's from the website

including pictures from each
Ribbon Challenge so far
and a few extras I liked,
including the team at Crafty Ribbons.

I have left the tags blank so the
Crafty Ribbons Team can add some info themselves.

The daisy at the top of each tag is made from
a pearly vellum and a tiny yellow button.

I so LOVE the pumpkin orange ribbon on this!!!

I know this post contains a lot of photos
but I am so chuffed at not being last to complete
this challenge and they are in an envelope
ready to go into the post box!!!
