It seems like it has been forever since I have had the time to make a card and post to my blog. Summer school is over and I am so excited to have some time off to play in my craft room and a few day trips too. So for my first card I decided to make another Halloween card, I have been seeing lots of them on different blogs and have a few new Halloween sets from WMS so I thought it was time to break them in. I purchased this ribbon from Britex Fabrics, they have the most amazing selection of ribbon, I even have a photo to show you so you can see why this place is just so amazing! As always the Waltzing Mouse Mischief Makers have some awesome cards to spark your creativity for this sketch challenge, so be sure to visit their site and see what they made with this amazing sketch. Here is my card and thank you so much for taking a peek!

This is just a drop in the bucket of the selection of ribbon and trims at Britex Fabrics in San Francisco...they have so much and I have spent so much time just gazing at all of the colors and drooling over the velvet, plaid and sparkle ribbon, just so much to choose from.
