You Mean The World To Me

Hello there!  I took full advantage of Jonathan's quiet time yesterday to make a card using Nicole Heady's Make-It-Monday challenge.  The Copic marker- striped ribbon technique isn't one I have used before and wow!  I love how it looks!  I was inspired by the colors in a picture I saw on Pinterest and it snow balled from there.


Starting with a Smokey Shadow card base, I scored some lines around the top and right side of the card.


I took Vintage Cream grosgrain ribbon and using a YG25, BG15, and a T06 marker, drew lines down the ribbon length with a ruler.  I adhered those to my card front and trimmed the ends.


Lastly, I die cut the largest label from the Label die set and stamped it in Hawaiian Shores ink using its coordinating stamp set.  Stamped a sentiment from Masculine motifs and added a globe from October Afternoon's Boarding Pass Chipboard sticker sheet.


Truthfully, I LOVE how this turned out and am pleasantly surprised at how quickly it came to be.  Thank you so much for popping by my friend!  Your visits are so appreciated!

Lindsay
