Before the creative team parade begins, there's a few things you need to know:
1. All the new colors of Rumple Ribbon will be available for purchase starting February 24 (Sunday) at The LBC Online Store.
2. All these gorgeous colors will be showcased at the various hop spots............so settle back and enjoy the parade of creative minds as you hop this weekend.

Mama LoveBug is up first - my Rumple Ribbon project actually shows off two new colors - Oh Darling and Gentleman's Jacket - On The Edge Collection; I fashioned a double bow for an Easter project - it's a double-sided stand-up card.  The digi stamp is a Sherri Baldy Besties Easter gal. There was a whole lot of fussy cutting here along with water color penciling and gel-pen/Stickles enhancements.  My Easter gal, Rumplelena, could be given as a card or be used as a centerpiece for an Easter table decoration.

 

HI EVERYONE!!!!

Kimi here and I am so thrilled you are joining us today!! The Team has put together some amazing projects so make sure you stop at all the blogs on the hop!!!

For my project I wanted to make a center step card! I know you've seen these before but I've never made one! Wow...I may be addicted! Super easy and I love how it turned out! Here it is:

"May you find treasure at the end of the Rainbow"

I made the rainbow out of...what else...Rumple Ribbons! I so love how it turned out!!!

Here's the colors I used -

Red: Christmas Present

Orange: Autumn Spice

Yellow: Sunflower

Green: Green Leaves

Blue: Icy Sky

Purple: Sugar Plum

 

The paper is from a spring DCWV Stack I've had for years!! The little images on the "coins" I found online and the sentiment is computer generated! Hope you like my card and it inspires you to try something new!!!
