Squigglefly Challenge #46, SFC4613 Ribbon or Lace

Welcome to the Squigglefly Challenge Blog!

Hello everyone! Welcome to this week's Squigglefly Challenge.  Are you ready? Last week the challenge was to use Polka dots on your card.  The winner of last week's challenge is Sue Drees for her gorgeous card using Cardinal Birdhouse from artist Maria Shega.  Congrats!!

Please contact Holly at usyungs@gmail.com for your prize.
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This week's challenge is SFC4613 Ribbon or Lace
  The challenge this week is Ribbon or Lace.  So create a card or any other object but be sure to add some ribbon or lace too!  Also, if your image has ribbon or lace as part of its picture, that counts too!  We'd love for you to use a Squigglefly image, to be prize eligible it's required, but everyone is welcome to play along.
Let's start with some inspiration from the Holley Hobbyists:

Pat Martin created this Christmas theme card with lace on the edge.  This gorgeous image comes from Squigglefly artist Pamela Lehto.  The image used here is Santa Cone.  Wouldn't this make a Merry Christmas card?


 Jan Marshall  created this fun birthday card with polka dot ribbon using an image from Dawn Collins.  The image is Patchwork Apple. What a delightful card, perfect for this week's challenge!  Don't you love the brads on the corners?


Elizabeth Hart did this challenge with wonderful bow made of ribbon.  This image is designed by artist Cheryl Grant Alger and is called Half Santa Moon.   What a gorgeous Santa image and only $3 at the Squigglefly store!  Isn't that fluff on his hat fun?

   
Charlene Mitchell used a gorgeous Cardinal stamp from artist Pamela Lehto.  Her coloring is just stunning on that bird!  I love how she wove her ribbon on the card.  Great way to incorporate it for this week's challenge Charlene.

Darlene Pavlick created this beautiful winter card using a Stick Tree image from Pamela Lehto.  The top of the card looks like lace and she has ribbon bows wrapped around her trees, perfect for this week's challenge!

 Tammy Hair created beautiful fall card using Butternut Angel from artist Pamela Lehto.  Her coloring matches the colors of the cardstock and ribbons she used perfectly!  Gorgeous work Tammy! (Also, the wonderful image she is using has a ribbon in it, that would count for this week's challenge as well!!)



And lastly, I (Holley Barnhart from Holley's Blog)  used a great image from artist Judith Hart.  This image is called Herald Angel.  I added some gorgeous lace that I got on a vacation I took one summer in Istanbul, Turkiye.

I hope these cards have inspired you to make a card to play along this week.  You are always welcome to play no matter what images you use, but to be eligible for the prize, please use at least one stamp from Squigglefly!

What a nice touch!

 
 Tammy Hair created beautiful Christmas card using Holly Wreath from artist Pamela Lehto.  This image is just perfect for a square card and adding your sentiment inside is a wonderful completion.  Beautiful work Tammy!
