I love this sketch! Do you remember this card? It was for the SCS color (CC172) challenge and sketch (SC182) challenge together using Snow Flurry, a retiring set for KSS.

Here is this sketch again… almost a year later. Isn’t the Burgundy silk ribbon delicious?!!! A new discovery for me, which I learned about from Debbie Olson (HERE)… like I needed to be enabled! LOL! You may already know ALL about it… but, Sharon Johnson, of No Time To Stamp? has started to sell an amazing collection of ribbons! This 100% silk ribbon I purchased from Sharon is all that and more! ……… plus, she is selling this totally cool little gizmo called “Bow Easy“, which is how I made the bow below! YaHoo! I no longer feel like I am “bow challenged”! Thanks Sharon… and thanks Debbie!
