Hey Girls!
Hoarding is a bad thing. That's the lesson I have for you today: do not hoard. We spend lots of money on pretty trinkets, ribbons, papers and whatever else because we liked them, they made us smile when we first laid eyes on them and not because we thought about how nice they would look all hidden and out of sight for years. I was severely guilty of this when it came to ribbons and lace and other trims. So I've been challenging myself to use them more, and more often, and more of them on one card.
So meet today's cards. They each have not one, not two, but three!! ribbons/lace/trims on them and I couldn't feel more satisfied. Pretty papers and chipboard by Prima, and my sentiment is from Papertrey Ink.
Thanks for stopping in today!

Both of these cards are just stunning!!! I love the shabby chic look!!!! I, too, am a hoarder of wonderful "scrap candy". Thanks for the inspiration!:)

GORGEOUS!! I need to start using my stash more often! I buy things all the time because they look pretty and I end up stashing them away and forget they are there.

Oh so pretty! Loving that bit of turquoise - a nice touch!
Michelle, these cards are ever so beautiful! I love them both!
You are so right; I have tons of cool knickknacks and what-have-you marooned behind piles of - well - more knickknacks and what-have-you. But anyhoo, these cards are just lovely. Thanks for sharing!
These are both stunning!
Love these, Michelle!!! I too am trying to be better about not hoarding my goodies!
I love them both, but that second one really is so perfectly eye-catching! I love the way you did your ribbon treatment especially. Great lesson on using those supplies!!!
