Our Challenge this month was to use the wonderful ribbons from the my2angels collection, and I was so excited when my bundle arrived. I loved the pink girls ribbon but my girls are not in the pinky pastel frame of mind lately. I really wanted to use this ribbon on this paper ...




BUT they kind of clashed....so what did I do? I altered the ribbon of course!! (Head over to the TUTORIALS section of my2angels store to see how I did this...)

Here is my layout ... Birds of a Feather


I altered the ribbon and then made a large round calico flower to match. For the flower centre, I painted and inked a scenic route chipboard button, then finished it off with a coating of rock candy and some Twinklets Diamond Dust on the edges. The Websters braiding matched in perfectly, as did the black ric rac I had in my pack. I added small mists of Black Magic glimmer mist to the lovely Rose Moka paper to give it the edgey feel I wanted. The title was lightly misted with gold glimmer mist to dirty it up a little too.






MATERIALS USED

Papers: Rose Moka Graffiti paper

letter stickers: AC Thickers Jewelry Box and Carolee's Creations tiny black

ribbons: my2angels girlfriends ribbon, Websters raspberry braid, black ric rac
