Ribbon Carousel & Great Impressions Stamps Blop Hop

Happy Wednesday and thanks for taking the time to visit the Charmed Life Blog. Today the design teams from Great Impressions Stamps and the Ribbon Carousel are teaming up for a blog hop.

You should have arrived here from Jenny's blog. If not the hop list is at the bottom of this post.

Prizes- you can win a $25 gift certificate for Ribbon Carousel as well as a $25 gift certificate from Great Impressions Stamps. Just for leaving comments!! 

My card today is using the "scent of a rose stamp -G456". I stamped in soft suede ink for a vintage look.

I used 2 different Ribbon Carousel ribbons on this card. I layered a net ribbon over my daffodil center panel.
The unwired net ribbon is a beautiful shade of brown that matched my soft suede card stock so wonderfully.

On top of the net ribbon I used a champagne shimmery sheer ribbon. I love the look of these 2 ribbons together.

I made a bow and added a pearl center-cut a doily die in daffodil to complete this card.

My next sample is a Christmas tag. I cut the tag using a Spellbinders labels 4 die in red. I die-cut a Sizzix tag and stamped the sentiment. I used the Great Impressions stamp - "have yourself E512".

To complete my tag I added a felt snowflake and some green 3/4" twill v striped ribbon. This is a great trendy ribbon and complimented my tag so well. I tied the ribbon with some jute and added a red button. Now I have my first tag done for Christmas (lol).

You next stop on the hop is Peggy's blog.
