Well things are a bit rushed again this week but have managed 10 minutes to do a challenge. I chose Arty Girlz ribbon challenge. and of course to kill two birds with the proverbial one stone. I have used all Dovecraft products except for the card which is DCWV from one of their cardstock stacks which I love because they have a lovely texture and a white core anyway back to the point

Here is my Ribbon challenge card



I have managed to fit in another quick crafting session so decided to do Theme Thursdays Stripes Challenge . So here is my stripes card. I used DCWV All Dressed Up paper and chipboard , Dovecraft Charcoal prints paper I added some flowers snipped from flower ribbon and some pearl gems . I altered the glittered Glam chipboard with wiggly stripes using sharpie permanant markers .


So I also have a free paper for you and will have some matching papers over the next few days. I have been working with neopolitan colours just recently so decided to create some papers using that colour scheme.



If you like it you can download it free here FREE PAPER DOWNLOAD the next paper in the set will be neopolitan stripes

I like especially the way you used the ribbons in your ribbon card and the striped circles.
I planned to stamp something last night, but I spent the whole evening in front of the computer to look at your wonderful work:))
