Not To Brag...

But for once I ROCKED OUT A COLOR CHALLENGE. Okay I only say that because of all the color challenges I have done, this is the only...ONLY...card I love. And the bow? My Gosh the bow!! I actually tied a perfect bow. You don't understand people, I can't tie a bow to save my life!! Enough, here's the challenge...



And heeeere's the card:



I completed this card while on the phone with my loony Mom. I can call her loony and get away with it because we are bestest friends AND because she is all hopped up on cold meds right now! Oh and also because it will make her laugh when she reads this.


Supplies:
Paper: CTMH chocolate cs, white daisy cs, Emporium B&T
Other: CTMH chocolate rub-ons, teal ribbon from a garage sale...Score!

Love the Bow!!! On of the blogs I follow (can't remember which one ...there are so many)they actually had a video tutorial on how to tie bows LOL. I so cannot tie a bow to save my life..me and ribbon don't get along.
The card is very beautiful and you did rock on the challenge.
