Etsy Inspired Challenge

Life with a newborn and a toddler is crazy!!! I'm trying really hard to squeeze in some 'me' time to help me unwind and relax ... when I find myself needing a break. I found the perfect opportunity to play with some paper and ribbon today when I read my friend Virginia's blog post about her design team project for the Etsy Inspired Challenge website. I LOVE Etsy!!! The shop to choose inspiration from is FreshMetal. I perused around and really liked quite a few necklaces that were for sale ... love the fabric flowers that were used! I decided to take part in the challenge, and here is what I came up with:
I made my own fabric flowers using some sating ribbon, and adhered them to a card I created using Hero Arts stamps and various cardstock. Was nice to play a bit today!
