This is my 3rd day of keeping all the kids at home... on the up side, everyone is starting to feel better... but I didn't want a repeat of yesterday, where Sofia lost her breakfast on the school bus riding into school. Poor kid. And also, I felt like parent-of-the-year. Whoever had to clean the bus probably thought so too...
Onto the crafting.
I thought I'd throw my hat in the CAS-ual Fridays ring. I'm not much of a ribbon gal - I mean, I hoard the stuff, but just don't use it much. But as I watched a PVR-d episode of Top Chef, I decided I meant ribbon-business. I present to you: ribbon, 3 ways.
1. I cut out a cardboard ring (using circle punches) and wrapped green ribbon around the entire thing.
2. A huge, floppy, gauzy bow at the top.
3. Pom-pom ribbon trim, rolled into a makeshift flower.
BAM.
Ribbon challenge, accepted. and served.
beautiful card! I think we've all been there with the sick kid & feeling terrible about it....I once took my little one to the credit union even though I knew he wasn't feeling great, and he did you-know-what right in front of the counter! They still comment on it when I come in
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card using ribbon!!!
ReplyDeleteHope your kids feel better soon!
