The Clean and Simple challenge is to use shades of blue and green.
-Prismacolor pencils were used for the iris colors and when IÂ’m in a hurry I quickly blend the colors outside the image lines to act as outline shading. I do this by moving the paper stump back and forth as fast as I can.
-My space was way to open and as quick as a Cuttlebug is I just ran the panel through with each narrow folder at an angle.
-Now for the ribbon which takes me longer than both of the steps I listed aboveÂ…I have a love/hate relationship with ribbon and I really donÂ’t use it that often. Anyway, I couldnÂ’t decide what to do and remembered jojot did a nice ribbon feature on one of her cards last week so without looking it up I think I cased her idea. There is a slot for the ribbon to slip through and after tying the knot I slip it through the slot and tape the ends to the back side of the panel.

This is so beautiful and creative, Roxie! I love the CB borders on the diagonal - it adds so much interest! The ribbon treatment is great! Wonderful coloring, too!
