Really Reasonable Ribbon Challenge #2~Ribbon Border!

Hello!  It's time for another Really Reasonable Ribbon Challenge!  For this challenge we were to create a border on our projects using RIBBON!  I just love the fun, bright colors in the Cosmo Cricket DeLovely paper pad and I decided to try my hand at making one of these fabric flowers.  I found a super easy tutorial on You Tube (LOVE You Tube!!!!)  I used my PTI Butterfly Die to cut out a couple of butterflies, then stamped on them with an image from  the PTI set Butterfly Dreams.  The sentiment also comes from this set. 

For my ribbon border, I used some gorgeous Plaid Ruffle Yellow Ribbon.  Doesn't it just make the perfect border, and it's so easy!  It's already ruffled for you:)  I also used some Lime Stripe Grosgrain for my flower leaves.  The layout is from The Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge #60, however I changed the sentiment location. 

Well, I'm feeling a little under the weather today.  I hate summer colds:(  Thank you for visiting me and I hope you enjoy your day!
