Angled just right!


Sue from My Inner Reflection inspired me with her ribbon on an angle, so I thought that I would give it a go.
I had three matching ribbons in my ribbon box and all I needed was some matching bazzill, some matching inks and some matching copics - all to tie in with the colour scheme of the ribbons.
Then... the other day I bought an inexpensive turquoise coloured bangle - very nice - and then realised that I had nothing in my wardrobe that matched it. So a handbag and an outfit later and that bangle didn't seem so cheap any more.
Next, I am planning to buy myself a Porsche key ring - cause I am on a roll.
I am entering this card into the following challenges:

  15. Gorgeous card Jenny!
    Great colours and fabulous copic colouring! They are sooo addictive aren't they! No desk photo from me this week :o( as we were away all weekend at Juvenile Arthritis camp (my son has it) and I knew I wouldn't have time to visit any other desks. I barely got my DT card posted on the blog before we hit the road on Friday!
    Hugs to you my friend,
