Challenge #163 - Ribbon or Twine - Team Trace

Hi, time for another challenge here at Southern Girls.

Thanks so much to everyone that played along
last fortnight in our 'Stuck on You' Challenge.

This fortnight we are all about ribbon or twine!

We want to see all those beautiful ribbons, thick or thin,
and pretty twine wrapped, bunched or bowed.

Goodie Bag Prize

We had a change of sponsor this week.
Due to circumstances outside our control
we have had to change from our original sponsor.
Our lovely Tracy has offered to put together a wonderful
goodie bag for our lucky winner, so it will be
a wonderful mystery treat.

And here are the Design Team Lovelies projects to inspire you...

Our top 5 this fortnight chosen by the awesome Cass are....

20 Meg

 A wonderful example of how a black and white card can be very striking.  Great silhouette, the embossed snowflakes and music are beautifully matched to the diecut.  Wonderfully created.

33 Karren (NZ)

I love the simplicity of this card, the use of stamps and diecuts is beautiful. I also like the use of the notepaper pattern.  Very creative card.

44 Coops

Beautifully designed, love the wide ribbon used on the card.  Gorgeous colour combo and I also like the little added touches, like the pearls added to the sentiment piece and the distressing.  Great detail in the design.

49 Diane Louise

Being a big fan of Steampunk, I love the way Diane has bought in the feminine elements, the fancy lock, the silver leaves and hearts.  Beautifully crafted.

 63 Tone K

A beautiful layout,  pretty cluster, gorgeous embellishments with lots of details, from stamps to stencils. Great example of white space.  Love this layout.

Well done ladies AWESOME work!

What a fabulous Father's Day card!  Love the super cute fish with all the sparkling scales, the bubbles and waves of the patterned panels make for a perfect background too. 

#2 Darlene Pavlick

WOW - we asked for sparkle and these wonderful wedding wishes are filled with sparkle.  Love the intricate sentiment panel, elegant design and the sparkling combination of silver and blue.

#3 Alison B

Such a delightful image and coloured with pretty pastels too.  Love how the image panel is framed with the flowers, bow and butterflies.  Love the sparkle and shine of the butterfly gems and the blue and lattice panels too.
