i've been working on this card off and on for last week's sketch challenge. when i saw that today's ways to use it challenge was to use spirals, i figured this was already high on the scale for 'stuff' for me...i might as well go over the top,lol! the bands of ribbon going across the card is two different ribbons, layered. the top layer of thin silver ribbon is wired, so i made the spiral by winding it around a crochet hook. the sentiment oval is edged with silver stickles. it, and the cherish image are embossed with silver. this card has a lot more sparkle and shimmer to it than the photo shows.
thanks for looking!

of COURSE when I get to yours, it takes my breath away!! Wow, Deb, this is outstanding! I love how the ribbon curled. I guess it will be hand delivered, as I'd hate to think what the postal system would do to this work of art!! I'm not surprised you used ribbon for the spiral; you seem to have a knack for using ribbon in special and unique and really pretty ways! Thanks for sharing! xo
