Today's challenge to make a card around a quote was so much fun. I used a quote by Leo Buscaglia... A SINGLE ROSE CAN BE MY GARDEN... A SINGLE FRIEND, MY WORLD. I didn't get to do yesterday's SC196 so I combined it with today's challenge. I used a piece of dp from CTMH that I have been hoarding for awhile. I love the antique look. I made my ribbon rose. The only ribbon that I had was white and I wanted an antique color, so I soaked my ribbon in the bottom of my coffee cup then dried it. It made such a pretty color of ribbon. I finished off the card with pewter brads. Let me know what you think.
