Live Laugh Love

I'm using this one as a birthday card... Sort of nontraditional. I discovered belatedly that the ribbon was too wide to string across the front of the card as I did... Love the bow, though!



I did some distress inking around the card base (can't really tell) and then distressed it (frayed edges) using the Tim Holtz tool.

So classy and elegant. I don't think the ribbon is too wide at all. It adds charachter and shimmer that paper just wouldn't.
