FCCB - Challenge #186 Ribbons and Buttons
Hello all you FCCB fans and all my followers!!! We have another fun challenge starting today all about Ribbons and Buttons! I have a friend whose birthday is coming up and I wanted to make her a fun card! I pulled out my Sweet Treats Cartridge and created this bright and colorful 5x5 card. I love the colors and patterns, I really hope that she will like it! I cut the phrase at 2 1/2", but I didn't use the cake that comes with the phrase in the handbook, instead I used the individual cake image and cut it at 3 1/2". I embossed my border with the Chevron embossing folder from The Paper Studio, and the cake with Swiss Dots. I did do some stitching around the edge of my base card, but you can't really see it in the picture. My cake is popped up on some foam tape and I topped it with a cute button for the cherry. I used some We R Memory Keepers Baker's Twine for my ribbon. Also, the word "cake" is cut out of some pink polka dotted paper I found in my scrap stash and popped it up on some foam tape too for some extra dimension. I wish the picture captured just how fun this card is in person, but use your imagination :) I hope that you will join us over at FCCB this week and use up some of your ribbons and buttons from your stash!!!
