Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch #28




I'll start with the good news: I won a free stamp set of my choice at the Papertrey Ink Blog Hop over the weekend! The hardest part came afterwards: what do I choose?! :-) 

The moment I saw Karen Giron's sketch for this week I knew that it was time for my favorite ribbon with circles to be on display. I got it on our trip to Friedericksburg and thought I found it pretty cheap....until the cashier told me that the price was per foot, not yard. So, in the end, not so cheap, but still as pretty! :-) 

I went ahead and made two cards: one for the stamps to shine, the other one for the ribbon.
