Green Ribbon

I decided to have another go at LIM this week - I do love green   http://simplylessismoore.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/week-62-colour-challenge.html  and it seemed like a good opportunity to combine it with this weeks challenge at There She Goes which is to use ribbon  http://tsgclearstamps.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/tsg151-ribbon-time.html



The very first set of stamps I bought from There She goes was one of their gorgeous sentiment sets of which the above is one.  I love how large and flourishy it is and thought it would look great with little else on the card so I selected 3 shades of green ribbon in different thicknesses and fixed them behind a smooth panel on a textured base card.
