Express Yourself




I chose Carrie Gaskin, ColourQ #77 winner to CASE today.



She used paper piercing to follow the butterflies, which inspired me to paper pierce the steam in this card.



I paper pieced the cup and outlined it with a Souffle pen.




I used ColourQ's colors here.



There IS olive in there...in the stripe under the ribbon loops I stitched.


The inspiration for the ribbon treatment is from







Thank you for stopping by to view my card. ;)
