MSE Back to Basics Challenge

The lovely TomsMum set a new card-making challenge on MSE to make a card using a minimum of stash so I have opted to use a piece of patterned paper, ribbon and a sentiment. As the first card was so easy to make (and I think looks pretty nice) I decided to make a couple more with different papers, ribbons etc and I changed the orientation of the card for the bottom 2 cards which gives them a different look I think. I used Cosmo Cricket papers from my new much loved pads and the cupcake paper is Basic Grey Nook & Pantry.

For the ribbon on the cupcake card I knotted a piece of scrap cream ribbon over the top of the knot of the brown ribbon to add a different look.

I did the same with the ribbon on this card - this is my fave paper, love those rows of birds x
