Fashion, Fashion, Fashion

After a very very cold day at my nephews 1st birthday party (we were outside and the wind happened to blow in the only little area which wasnt covered!!) We got home and I got a hot water bottle and sat in bed creating and listening to the tv.

Tonight I did some Iris folding and I did 2 of Dee's fabulous "models" this one has been completed so I shall show it to you :)

With this one though I changed the layout of the strips - but I dont think you can see them - the shiny ribbon (which I didnt fold) seems to sparkle together....

Backing paper was from the big packet of 12 by 12 papers I bought and found in my spare room. I added a corner strip of hot pink paper ribbon and found a cute butterfly peeloff to sit nicely on the corner. Still didnt look quite finished so I added my very thin double sided tape to the edges of the card and added more ribbon so the colours tied in.

The other card I havent finished yet - have done the folding and the background but that is all. Hope to be able to show you that tomorrow.

Until we meet again - have a wonderful day!!!

Wow! I love it!
That purple ribbon is to die for :) and I love how you framed everything with pink ribbon. It really makes the main image stand out.
I have some 3mm double sided tape and it's just perfect when you need to add anything AFTER your card is practically done. It's very easy to 'control' that one and put a bit of it anywhere you like :D
