Blessings

 Happy Friday!!!  It's time for a new challenge from the Cut It Up Challenge Blog.  This week, the challenge is: Ribbons and Bows

Here is my card for your inspiration:
Hopefully, we are far enough removed from Christmas that this doesn't send you into tizzy!  It was mostly inspired by the ribbons.  Every piece of ribbon on this card was in my bits and pieces stash and the colors brought to mind a pack of Christmas paper, and there you go.  The background paper was already trimmed to size--I must have cut it for a different project and then decided it didn't work.  Both the sentiment panel and the black mat layer were cut from scraps so all around this is a scrap card!  I pulled out a beautiful Christmas sentiment set from Verve and some looooooong forgotten silver brads to finish everything off.
Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you will hop over to the Cut It Up blog for the full details of the challenge and to see what the rest of the Design Team has created. Bonus points (well, at least in my book) if you create a project using a die cut bow like some of my teammates did!

Dies: Verve "Classy Labels"
