I'm on a roll with getting back into making cards this week, and DH is going to NYC for the weekend so I'll be sure to keep the mojo flowing. I combined a sketch from
Card Positioning Systems with the colors from this week's
Color Throwdown.
The ribbon came from my best friend's wedding invites, which I had some leftover after making hers last year. Perfect touch at the end! I'm putting this card along with many others into a box to send out to
Cards for Heroes today.
If you haven't already checked it out, be sure to head over and see what you can do to help a worthy cause.

Very pretty card! Thanks for the link for Cards for Heros, I was just going to look for that info today- perfect timing!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Caryl! What an awesome cause. I went and checked it out. Our GS troop was looking for a service project and this may be just what we need.
ReplyDeleteThanks a bunch.
I was trying to think of something to do with those colors. Your card is fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI went to the hero web sight. Are you sending the 25 Christmas cards +2? What a great idea. I better go get busy. Thanks for the comment and the great idea.
Great card! That reminds me, I have some cards for CFH to mail out---eek!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card! That chocolate ribbon looks so delicious! Thanks for playing the Throwdown!
ReplyDeleteHey Caryl,
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful card! I just love it! I am on a roll for CFH too...looks like you have a good stack going too!
Good job on combining both the color and sketch challenges. How fun that you can use some "recycled" ribbon. And how nice that you made the cards for CFH.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty card!!! Great take on both challenges! Thanks for playing the Throwdown!
