Cards in Envy Challenge #2

Time for another Cards In Envy challenge. Remember, sketch on the first Monday and challenge on the third. This time we were to use paper strips as ribbon. This is a great way to keep the bulk down on OWH cards. I used the Stampin Up Serene Silhouette image here and a nice purple color I don't play with often. Since it wasn't over the 1/4 of an inch rule we have at Cards In Envy, I added a second paper strip that I used a border punch on. Hope you find the time to play in the challenge and send that card on to Operation Write Home Photobucket

  4. Love the colors on this card. The punches you used makes it look like lace instead of ribbon. Fabulous job.

  7. I think that the white background makes the purple of the flowers stand out beautifully, for some reason purple always makes me think of Easter, Gorgeous card!
