Will have to redo the base for this card as I put the sentiment on crooked but don't have the time right now so it stays crooked for this challenge.
Have had this ribbon forever and everytime I go to use it something just doesn't look right......actually intended to do a card with a black bkgd but had no yellow embossing powder for the sentiment so decided to try using black mesh and surround the yellow flip flop ribbon with black ribbon to highlight the yellow............and VOILA it finally worked......
Big thanks goes out to papermoon04 for the genius idea of using mesh on the bkgd....that is what saved my idea......

How awesome is this!!!! You gave the look of another stamp with the mesh and the flops are adorable. They stand out more because of the simplicity of the rest of the card. Wonderful, wonderful card. You nailed the challenge!!

Wow! Definitely had me fooled with the mesh since I thought it was canvas at first. Great idea to use the black ribbon to frame the flip flops. Love it.
