succeed, maybe you shouldn't try again! A quick post today with two cards, both for the current
DeNami Design product challenge (#4) to use ribbon. I had such great ideas for this challenge, but I really don't feel like I was able to make either card work. They aren't bad cards, but they aren't really good cards either. Thus, the title of my post. I should have quit while I was behind! Anyway, this is card number one. I used the completely adorable Mimi in the Rain from DeNami for the card. I paper pieced her boots, coat/dress & umbrella.
And here is the second one. For this one I used the DeNami birdhouses stamp. I created the grass using some PTI Ripe Avocado satin ribbon.
Thanks for peeking... hope your day is going well.
Supplies: Cardstock: PTI White; Stampin Up! Pear Pizzazz; Patterned Paper: Stampin Up! Pear Pizzazz & Blushing Bride; Ink: Memento Rich Cocoa; Ribbon: PTI: Ripe Avocado satin; SU! Pink Pirouette stripped. Stamps: DeNami Design
I love how you paper pieced Mimi-her outfit is just adorable :) Fun ribbon grass on the second card :) Glad you joined us at DeNami Design!
ReplyDeleteLove your color scheme of pink and green, and great paper-piecing, Rosemary!
ReplyDeleteWhat are you talking about?! These are both such cute cards, Rosie! Seriously! I love the pink and green combos! Mimi's paper pieced outfit is adorable and what a clever way to use the ribbon for grass! You are too hard on yourself. . .I love 'em both! :)
ReplyDeleteLove, love, LOVE these, Rosie! That paper piecing is pure perfection.... Kinda makes me want some {rain, that is!} ... Looks like you've had a stampilicious day - these cards are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI think both of these are wonderful, but the second one really caught my eye. Those bird houses are really cute! I love the bunching effect for the ribbon as grass as well!
ReplyDeleteThese cards are super cute!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI think you were way too hard on yourself- these cards are great! I really love how you paper pieced Mimi's outfit, and those soft colors are so pretty!
