This card is for Flourishes' May contest, to use ribbon. I tried using ribbon a little differently here. I made a little back detail on this bride's dress by pulling a couple of pieces of narrow ribbon through a small hole at her waistline. It's hard to see -- white on white and all -- but it's there. I thought I'd dress her up a little with a pearl earring, too. To break up all the white, I rolled the So Swirly wheel on the card base in Going Gray.

Lois, this is gorgeous....the ribbon adds so much to the layout as do the pearls.
