Today's card was made using this weeks Ribbon Reel color challenge. I stamped a sentiment onto the bottom right corner of the blue panel then mounted the 2 pieces to a kraft cardstock base.  I then mounted the green strips followed by the butterfly mat, ribbon and fabric flower trim.

This card was inspired by the pretty inspiration photo over at  The Ribbon Reel . I began on some Crumb Cake cardstock.  To that, I layered some Brown cardstock and ran it through my big shot using the wood grain embossing folder.  Before adding my stamped image I placed some cheesecloth on the top and bottom corners.  I finished it off with Green leafs, some twine, a chrome mini key and a shimmery bird.

Today's card was inspired by the inspiration photo over at  the ribbon reel challenge blogspot.   I mounted lined paper on a piece of Domestic Goddess Designer patterned paper, and stamped a French inspired image on the left upper corner in 'Bashful Blue'.  I then adhered a piece of Brown polka dot paper across the bottom of the panels and machine stitched around the edges with Brown thread.  I punched a floral border with Pink checker patterned paper and layered it down on the right side of the panel.   White organza ribbon is wrapped around the middle with a bow tied and a Pink button. 'From the Heart' is stamped in Brown ink,  punched out with an Oval scalloped punch and adhered with foam adhesive.   A piece of Green patterned paper was die cut as well as a heart from upcycled paper, and placed on the lower left side of the panel.  Finally, butterflies were added with sparkling Yellow rhinestones.

Today's card comes from the inspiration photo over at the ribbon reel challenge blogspot . I really think the Tea theme is so cute.  I went to my local craft store and they had some nice coordinating tea time paper.  I began on a piece of Kraft cardstock.  I then layered on some pretty patterned paper from Bo Bunny.  I layered a tea cup onto a piece of cream cardstock.  I finished this pretty card off with some stitching, cream lace, seam binding and prima flower.

Today's card was inspired by the inspiration photo over at the ribbon reel challenge blogspot.   I began my creation an a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock. The first layer is a piece of Bo Bunny patterned paper, the third layer is a strip of the other side which I have stitched on.  I die cut a piece of Very Vanilla and stamped my sentiment using Lady Bug due drop ink.  The butterfly punch comes from upcycled cardboard which I have inked using Whisper White.  I handmade the Pink satin flower and gave it some light brown leaves.  Finishing it off with a Clear rhinestone, Pink button, lace and twine.

Today I decided to make a card based on 2 challenges. The Ribbon Reel Challenge & Mojo Monday . I took a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock and ran it through my Big Shot using the stripes embossing folder. I then shaded the edges with some Whisper White craft ink to give the edges a beautiful soft look.  I had a left over piece of polka dot Blushing Bride which have the edges inked aa weel and adhered that to my base.  The second layer is a piece from Melissa France, along with a piece of handmade lavender paper.  I took a cute little doily and stuck a Melissa Frances sticker onto the center and finished it all off with a greenish button and twine.
