Lili of the Valley Challenge–Ribbons and Bows

 

Did you all manage to get your stamps from the new Boys release from Lili of the Valley yesterday, I know that Lisa, Laila and Richard have been going flat out since midnight last night, these new stamps should soon be appearing all over blog land I think!!

On the Lili of the Valley Challenge  this week we have a fabulous theme for you 

RIBBON & BOWS

As it is the 2nd Thursday in MAY  we have our regular monthly sponsors  The very Generous Andrea and Mary from The Ribbon Girl .  

I had a fancy for using my Distress Inks this week, I forgot how much I love them and have made a resolution not to leave it so long again, I think I need a bit of practise though.  Fairy Thistledown just seemed perfect to go with these new Pion Papers, from Dies to Die for, it was so hard to cut into these that I could only bring myself to use one sheet.  I ordered 3 sheets of each design, 1 to use, 1 to Stroke and 1 to wallpaper the craftroom lol!!!!.

The colour has not photographed quite right here but I have used matching Seam Binding and a little Charm from The Ribbon Girl .

Cherry Blossom, 20mm Open Rose , 4mm closed Rosebuds  and beautiful lace are from Wild Orchid Crafts

Don’t look to close at the colouring, I need more practise again.
