I must admit I love twine and find it useful for those pesky men cards and for all those little tags I make for the charity shop to use .. .. .. but my favourite is definitely ribbon and after years of wedding stationery work I certainly have enough to keep me out of mischief for quite some time.
Ribbon does pose a problem for cards that need posting so I tend to just keep the ribbon flat, and steer clear of ribbon bows unless I know the card is going to be hand delivered.
This used:
Image: Penny Black "4268K" Crystal Drops
Sentiment: A scribbly one that is part of the image stamp
Gold Embossing Powder
Distress Ink: Peeled Paint
Hessian Type Ribbon with a twinkly gold pattern on it
Paper and card all from that "good to be used" box I told you about in my previous post
Hot Fix Heart that was silver originally but I have coloured it with a green ProMarker
Diamond and Gold Stickles that aren't showing up too well in the photograph
and that is me for this lovely Sunday!
I hope you have all enjoyed yours too.

That hour meant it's early in the morning for a while so I went riding before the rest of the world was awake!! A gorgeous card and what super ribbon. Perfect for us at AYLI xx
A wonderful stamped image and sentiment in gorgeous greens as always a beautiful layout
You made excellent use of your extra hour - love the layout of this card and the stamp is great. Hugs x
I think I shall have to try and get better at using ribbon on my cards. I do have plenty and I really like the look of it here. Such a great way to add interest. The gold and green look great too xx
Oh…. Christmas card time….. been thinking about doing some recently! Thanks for your inspiration!
A super card. I love the colours and the simple use of the lovely ribbon. Thanks for joining AYLI challenge. Elaine
