Get Ya Ribbons Out!

 Good morning & welcome. I'm here today to share my latest 'My Time To Craft' DT creation with you. Our theme for the next fortnight is....

RIBBON/BOW

either or both is good

As this is a masculine card, I used a strip of black grosgrain ribbon across the bottom. Not sure the recipient would like a big fluffy bow! lol!!

Make it Manly

Its that time of the month again when I share with you my latest Crafty Purple Frog creation. Don't forget if you entered last month, you need to pop over & check to see if you were lucky enough to be chosen as our winner or Top 3!

This month the theme is.....

MAKE IT MANLY

the perfect time to get those 'Fathers Day' cards made & enter them with us, for a chance to win a £10 voucher to spend in store!!!

This was such a strange make for me, I always use a digi or stamped image on my cards. I think this is only maybees the 2nd or maybees the 3rd time in the last 10 years I've made a card without a coloured image!!

This card was Katie's idea, she had been on Pinterest looking for ideas for a project she is doing & showed me some great makes using tools.....so here is my make.
