Quick Birthday Present


My daughters were both invited to a birthday party fora little girl whose name begins with M. So not knowing what she wanted I decided to make her a monogramed shirt and matching hairbow. My daughters were wrapping the bow while I took a picture of the shirt :) I have lots of card pieces ready to go but haven't completed anything.

Ribbon Rings

I have been busy organizing my ribbon with ribbon rings over the last few weeks
first I ordered the set of 90 and used them all and had tons of ribbon left over. The pictures below are or the 90 + 20 or so off the new set of 300 I got. I bought mine at www.pinkhedgehogpapercrafts.com
Batman is helping me out below by holding the bag of them.
I have to say I don't think I have enough orange and yellow lol i couldn't figure out why I didn't have much blue ribbon, and my darling daughter says she might have some in her room, so she goes in and brings back a large handful, I look at her and say wow this is bunch of ribbon why is it in your room, she says well I don't know why. so I ask if that was all and she comes back 2 more times with armfuls.





Still maybe half way done at best, I have boxes and boxes of spools and more loose ribbon in the other room besides this laundry basket full that I am currently working out of lol

Strawberry Card


I used the cricut to cut out the card from the hello kitty cartridge, the card stock was from my scraps, luminarte mica in oyster makes the card glimmer just a bit, the strawberry seeds are little ribbon triangles poking out, the curly part of the stem is ribbon I colored green with my green nile copic marker

I entered this card in the Hope Stamps Eternal cupcake challengehttp://hopestampseternal.blogspot.com/2010/02/cupcake-inspiration-challenge-48.html

Been a while...
