Hi Everyone,
You should have arrived from Amy Smidebush’s site
This is my entry for the Denami Layers Blog Hop. I decided to layer the ribbons on this card to add something different. I think it gives a different look to the card—maybe more formal than a bow.
I used five Denami products on this card: the Small Spring Flowers stamp set, Emerald Grosgrain Ribbon, Purple Rhinestones, the Three Butterflies stamp, and the Heartfelt Greetings stamp set. The patterned paper is some of my favorite from Stampin Up! I’m still trying to get over the fact that they discontinued Amethyst.
Enjoy.
Here is the next stop on the blog hop:

Pat, this is just so pretty. Your layers of ribbon are perfect and I love the sentiment tag. That IS a gorgeous color of CS, what a shame they discontinued it.

What a clean beautiful card…you’re right, the ribbon is elegant and kept with the simple cleaness where the bow would have taken away from the focal point of the stamp. Just lovely.
