RCC27 Anything Goes


Hey there everyone!!! Did you see the announcement over on the Ribbon Carousel Challenge blog this morning? I'm so excited to be asked back for another term with a fabulous group of ladies!!!  To make it easy on us, this week's challenge is "Anything Goes".  Easy peasy right?


I've been eying up the HYCCT challenges at SCS and decided I want to play along with the "Hope for the Holiday" challenge which is to create a holiday card using pink as your primary color scheme.  I have so few Christmas cards made and thought that my card would be relatively easy to reproduce.  I've used a wooden snowflake that I purchased last year (and have been hoarding) as the focal point and then stamped snowflakes (Angel Pink Ink - I can't remember the manufacturer because I am not writing this blog post at home) using the TSG set called "Stick Together".  The sentiment was then stamped in Chocolate Chip Ink.  I've added clear rhinestones to the center of each snowflake for a little bit of extra bling.  To finish off the card, I've used some Cotton Candy Divine Twine and Natural Jute Twine on the button from the Ribbon Carousel. I am so excited that Jeanie Whitmer is hosting her "That's Krafty Thursday" challenge again so I'll be entering my card for that. 

In honour of the new Design Team, Corinna is offering 15% off this week at the Ribbon Carousel using the Coupon Code TURKEY 11.

We also have some fabulous new product that's being introduced today!!!


First off is the 2 Inch Maple Hour Glass Spools. They're fabulous for all of that random ribbon we all have lying around that is no longer on the original roll, definitely a perfect way of storing your ribbon that you've purchased by the yard. 




And the new November Ribbon Club Kit has been revealed!!! Wahoo!!! This is a must have for all of your holiday cards that we'll all be working on. If you're a current Kit subscriber, these will be mailed out this week.
