It's my entry for the One Layer Wednesday Challenge on Susan's Simplicity Blog.
The theme this week is Heavy Metal, so although only one layer (ie a piece of card folded in two) with any stamping or embellishment added directly to the card, I don't know if this embellishment... a woven ribbon wreath, is a little OTT! It has a metallic edge and the the simple sentiment from Penny Black has been heat embossed in silver. The ribbon is actually deep green although it looks almost black in this picture.
I love weaving ribbon, I find it SO relaxing!
I've been looking after my granddaughter for a couple of days so I'm all behind with things and today I haven't had an inordinate amount of inspiration. We also got some more stuff down from the loft, most of which is heading for the dump. Why do we hang onto such a load of rubbish I wonder.
