Anyway today starts another Cards in Envy Challenge and this week we want to see you use strips of paper instead of ribbon. Be sure to pop over to the blog to see all the wonderful inspiration from the Design Team.
My take on this is quite simple, I have taken a strip of paper and a marker in the same color to add some definition to the strip to resemble a grosgrain ribbon. We are heading into Autumn here, so I had a bit of play with some seasonal colors for this one. The stamps I have used are a combination of Unity Stamp Co and Stampin' Up!
Thanks for popping by and I do hope to be admiring your take on this challenge this fortnight!

Love what you did to the strip of paper to make it look like ribbon. You are very talented.
WOW! You really did make that look like ribbon, amazing how much texture can be added with a marker.
Dani that paper really does have a lovely textured ribbon look! Beautiful!
This turned out beautiful! I really like the details that you added, the coloring to make the ribbon look more realistic, I never would have thought of it!
