Here is my DT Card for Double Trouble "It's Up to You", a free-for-all with your choice of last minute Christmas and/or any occasion cards, and wrap up 2024... my choice was a Christmas card sharing it with Jingle Belles "Banner Holiday".
Twisted Sister's optional twist is to include something to "Tie It Up" using ribbon, twine, bow, and/or even washi tape. The Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #606 was a perfect sketch to use washi tape... but when looking through my stash there was no washi tape. I did have a collection of ribbons in a variety of patterns and colors with adhesive backing and decided to use them.
Even though the ribbons were not representative of Christmas there was a nice variety of colors with traditional and non-traditional colors which looked so pretty together. Cut pieces in different lengths, adhered to a die cut frame from a Mint patterned paper and then bordered with a Capri blue.
Cut another smaller frame in the same Mint patterned paper, bordered with Capri blue, die cut a Sentiment in White and Capri cardstock, glued together, placed in the smaller panel off center and then adhered to ribbon background with 3D thin foam tape.
Stamped a small present, colored with Copic brush pens, added polka-dots to the ribbon with white jel pen and adhered with 3D thin foam tape to corner of sentiment panel. Finished the inside border of card base with a couple more cuts of the ribbon.

I so love the way you used the ribbons on this card, they are all so beautiful and the card turned out so fabulously!
Thanks so much for joining in the fun at I spy with my little eye challenge!
This is so cute! I totally thought those ribbons were washi. Very fun effect and that Merry Christmas sentiment font is perfection! :)
