Make My Monday

This weeks challenge over at MMM, still in festive mood, is to use red ribbon. The DT cards are fabulous and worth checking out.
I have used a pale green pearl card and scored a fold 1" in to create a spine. I stamped with the pine cones from SU pines and poinsettias with soft suede ink and only re inked on the 3rd stamping. I  matted the oval topper onto some embossed BP from my stash and pleated some red organza ribbon around the back. I added a bow as well. I punched 4 holes in the spine and threaded through some more red ribbon. The pine cone on the topper is glittered as are some of the berries around the card.


Thanks for taking the time to visit and leave a comment so that I can visit you:)
