Needless to say I got nothing done around the house today. But I did get to play in the stamp room, so this is good... Yes, this is my third card for today... I couldn't help myself... Those quickutz alphabet dies wanted to be used... I got lucky in the P and the d were the same so I could spell out Happy with them..
I don't use ribbon a lot... I like easy mailers and forget about making little tabs and loops, so the TLC426 challenge was a perfect reminder. I struggled with getting the ribbons to line up... It is what it is...
btw, my son who is my best critic doesn't like the card at all, but I do... and I count...lol
Thanks for looking

I love your card and I count, too. The ribbon loops look perfect to me! I forget about doing this, too. A great way to use up those bits of left over ribbon. This works great for the Ways to Use It Challenge WT423 - Rainbow. I just love this CAS design. Into my favs. TFS

Your ribbons look lined up perfectly in their vibrant rainbow colors. Spectacular birthday card and use of loops!

Awesome CAS design, Irene! I LOVE the rainbow of ribbon loops with the sentiment! The negative portion of the diecut letters is perfect for the cross panel!
