Flair On Friday March 9

Once again it was very hard to capture the true colors and especially the beauty of this ribbon.  It is woven with green and gold - so beautiful.  And one of the best things about it, it was free.  I recycled it from a birthday package my mom received this week.

I used the sketch at Get Ippity with Ippity with Ippity and also used the challenge at Unity Stamp Company
as my springboard.   The stamp sets are Ippity's  Loads of Love and So This is Love.
I pierced the holes and the stitching stamped on the hearts, and added some gold with the Sakura pen.
Other challenges:
Really Reasonable Ribbon - monochromatic green
Paper Sundaes - green
Mark's Finest Papers - recycle
Lothian - two main colors (green and gold)
Raise The Bar   greens
Mema's Crafts
two main colors (green and gold)
