Lily Pad Challenge - Ribbon

This week's  challenge at Lily Pad Cards is ribbons and our wonderful sponsor is May Arts!  

I created two cards using my May Arts ribbon.

My first card used some of this beautiful crochet lace to create a mask:

 

The lace was laid across the white cardstock and covered the entire surface and sprayed a lovely pink glimmer mist onto the white cardstock. 

The big butterfly and the vines (Hero Arts) were stamped onto the background using Ranger Archival Coffee ink. The vines were highlighted with a white gel pen. The butterfly was shaded with watercolor pencil and highlighted with white gel pen. The edges of the butterfly were cut out with the exacto knife and popped up. 

The sentiment (Hero Arts) was stamped using the same brown ink. The edges of the panel were sponged with  brown dye ink. The smaller butterflies were stamped on a remnant of the background and shaded with watercolor pencils. Fussy cut and attach to background.

The second card using the same lace and some beautiful Wrinkled  ribbon.

 

The background paper is sponged and stamped over using Old Letter Writing (Hero Arts) and Stampers Anonymous Sewing set. The dress form has a lace skirt with a knot tied from the lovely wrinkled ribbon. The stamp is from Nina B and fits the label 18 die cut. 

All the details of the challenge are at the Lily Pad Blog.
