Hello friends! Welcome and Happy Friday!!! I am so excited to share with you both of my entries for this month's Challenge over at May Arts Ribbon . This month the other lucky participants and I got to play with the gorgeous Wrinkled Ribbons. The first one is an easel card created using the Cricut Explore -I skipped a few layers to make the wreath the focal point ;) - The wreath was created using a paper ring pierced every 1/4" to secure the gathered ribbon. First fold ribbon in half on the short end and gather with basting stitch. Secure it to the ring using thread and a needle. Embellish with a bow. For the second one I made a 12" x 8" Screen Divider card. The tree was embroider whit Wrinkle ribbon using Japanese Stitching. First I traced my pattern onto pearlescent paper and pierced before starting embroidering. I stitched by "rows" and used about 1 yd of the green ribbon. to avoid excessive bulkiness on the back, use a "soft" knot....

 Happy Monday and welcome to another Monday challenge! Challenge #240 Anything But a Card This Weeks Sponsor $15.00 Gift Certificate ~This Weeks Challenge~ Create any project, that is not a card! To qualify for the prize, be sure to use at least 1 Cricut cut on your project and if it's not obvious, let us know what cartridge you used. I cut the box using the Make it now project for DS, but you can recreate the same look using the square box from  "Box it Up!" ( page 15 ) and add a design to the center of your lid using CCR  or using one of the designs available. The tiny bow is from pretty packages.  Quick an easy ;) As always thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!
