Color Challenge Week With Gallery Blooms!
It’s Thursday Challenge time at Create With Stamping Friends and we have some pretty colors for a Color Challenge this week. Take a peek:
I used an old trick on my card today that I haven’t used for a long time. I added some gathered ribbon along the edge of my stamped layer. It makes a nice finish and is so easy to accomplish:
It’s easiest done with ribbon that is soft and easy to play with. You can see a close-up in the photo below:
