Fortnightly Challenge Forever Friends - Use Ribbon or Lace

my blog candy here!

 Happy Monday everyone~
Today starts a new fortnightly challenge over at Forever Friends and the theme is - Use Ribbon or Lace.  We have two lovely sponsors:

Here are both of my cards for this fun challenge:
I went with a digi from Pink Gem Designs that was provided, added a ribbon to CTMH border, sentiment/tag from My Creative Time, Spellbinders ovals, papers from Echo Park and some wee rhinestones on the flowers.


For the second card I went with a Forever Friends image, papers from the paper pad First Edition (Hideaway), ribbon die from Taylored Expression, tag/sentiment My Crafty Spot, Spellbinders rectangle scallops and flower dies from C.C. Designs with added pearls in the center.


We have some amazing inspirations from our GDT from both sponsors and also from Forever Friends DT so please hop back here and check out what the awesome ladies have to offer you on this  challenge.  Hope you can join in and play along too!

Thanks for stopping by ~ enjoy your day/evening and new week ahead!

 Entering my first card in the following challenge:

    Oh gosh, these are both so precious, Shirl! Both images are darling and I love the plethora of flowers throughout the papers you chose. Isn't it so fun having one vibrant and one more neutral? Oh the joy in crafting! I love the pretty accents on each. Both cards are marvelous, my dear friend! Beautifully done. :o) I hope you have a wonderful day!

    Hugs and blessings!
