CHEERS

Happy New Year to you all!! We are here today with a brand NEW challenge for you at 

CRAFTY SENTIMENTS DESIGNS!

The teams have combined their efforts today and  the theme, if you hadn't guess is

NEW (house, baby, job, year etc)

For my card I used CHEERS

I kept the card very clean and simple, just adding some embossed lines and stamped a few stars. Jasmin is coloured with promarkers and glittered.

I would like to enter this into

We are now nearly a week into January which means it’s time for the sales and Crafty Ribbons started their mega sale on the 3^rd January where there are lots of fabulous ribbons at fantastic prices so to celebrate we’re having a blog hop with lots of prizes available. Be sure and check out the lovely bags of ribbon selling at £1 each! We also have a new challenge and this time Gina wants to see

NEW BEGINNINGS

 We'll draw a random winner for both the blog hop and challenge and  we’ll have the top 3 as usual. You can get all the details and lots more ideas from the Design Team over at the main site. Here's what I made:

When I found this gorgeous piece of green organza ribbon in my Crafty Ribbons box I knew I would be using it first lol. I love the breadth of it and the lovely soft colour and I am normally not a green lover but it matched perfectly with my promarkers lol.
