"Hey, everybody, let's have some fun
You only live but once
And when you're dead you're done, so
Let the good times roll, let the good times roll
I don't care if you're young or old
Get together, let the good times roll."
~B.B. King

The good times are sure rolling with the newest challenge at CAS-ual Fridays! In celebration of the Mardi Gras that is just around the corner, create a party themed card that features ribbon. Our sponsor this week is none other than the best ribbon place on earth, May Arts Ribbon!
The banners on my card are all made from ribbon available at May Arts. Super simple construction here: I placed a few sticker sentiments on top of a few lengths of ribbon, cut the edges on fun angles and and layered them over other fun ribbon. No stamping!
There are some really, really great cards over at CAS-ual Fridays! Please check the inspiration out, catch up on the challenge details and rules and find more about the sponsor and prize over at the CAS-ual Fridays Blog!
P.S. I do say that I think my dear husband was blushing a little bit when I showed him all your lovely comments on my new ribbon shelves! Thank you! I haven't seem him blush in a really long time. (I don't think I've seen his head that big either in a long time!)
Supplies:
Cardstock: (White) Office Max
Embellishments: (Wide Ric Rac Ribbon, Green/White Striped Grosgrain, Black Grosgrain, Teal Twill, Yellow Wired Pom Ribbon) May Arts, (Sticker Sentiments) SRM Press
Other: (Swiss Dots Embossing Folder) ProvoCraft, (Staples) Tim Holtz
