Oooohhhh! I am just sooo excited about my first blog hop with the rest of the Really Reasonable Ribbon Design Team! If you have arrived from Kerri's fabulous blog, you are in the correct place. If not, you may want to head over to the Really Reasonable Ribbon blog to start at the beginning!!If you have not seen this month's Ribbon Club assortment, you really must check it out...Silver and Blue oh my!!! :) I have used two of the ribbons from this Month's assortment on my card today...the Silver and Blue Shimmer Satin ribbons!
As you can see on my card, I stamped the snowflake image which is from the Peace & Joy set
from Our Daily Bread Designs, cut it out with the Snowflake die, and popped it up on a punched out circle. To create the "bow" behind the image, I cut 2" strips of blue and silver ribbons, folded them in half to create the pointed loops, and adhered them to the back of the image. The base panel was created by stamping the Snowflake Swirls background stamp on some Vintage Silver Luster paper from the Paper Temptress.

The base panel was created by stamping the Snowflake Swirls background stamp on some Vintage Silver Luster paper from the Paper Temptress. To finish off the card, I added a bit more ribbon across the base of the card to create the "package" look, and added the sentiment.
