Less Is More Challenge Number 25

A very late entry into this weeks challenge over at the LIM site. We have been asked to follow a RECIPE using either RIBBONS or BUTTONS on our cards.  Have only made one card this week as have been too down and tired to concentrate. This is as simple as i can get …..

P1020231 web 01

P1020232 web 01

The base card is approximately 250gsm, the hammered card topper is  around 220gsm.  Used ribbon from stash, the bird is a Marianne die, the flower is made from a old Sizzix die and the button is from stash.  Took me a long while to put this together but really looks like i sat there and threw it together very quickly doesn’t it. 

Thanks for dropping by:-)

    You sound so down, but the card you think looks thrown together is absolutely gorgeous. It looks as if the bird and the flower have been die cut from metal - well, however you've done it, they're stunning.
