I wanted to try Lisa Johnson's ruffled ribbon trim technique. I kept having the ribbon curl up on me so I had the idea to create a ruffled ribbon flower.
I used the Lemon Tart stitched grosgrain ribbon and gathered it by pulling on one of the stitched lines (I pulled/gathered from both ends after a "mishap" where I pulled the stitch completely out of the ribbon - makes for a nice shabby look, but doesn't gather it very well :o)
For the rest of the card I stamped a sentiment from Autumn Abundance and the large flourish from Fancy Flourishes.
I finished it with some messy stitching .
Thanks for stopping by!
