Beautiful Matryoshka Doll

Hello Lovelies,
I have another card to share with you today. I used the Cindy Loo and Once Upon A Princess carts with Recollections cardstock for this one. I wanted to use this ribbon that I bought but had never used. I am challenging myself to use my on hand materials and not buy anything new for the rest of the year except for cardstock of course. Thanks so much for all of the wonderful comments - they really are motivation for me to continue to post what I create. Thanks for the visit and enjoy the rest of your day my friends.
Hugs,
~Shen

  3. I love the color scheme you used and I need to adopt that "use what I got" advise. I keep buying, but not using half of it.

  4. Very nice card. The colors are great. I too need to use up "stuff", that's probably good advice for us all! Hugs, Pam at http://craftycards4u2.blogspot.com/

    I'd love to know where you like to shop for crafting supplies in Houston. Do you know any other good places besides Hobby Lobby/Michaels/Joann?

  19. Like the Nesting Doll (another name for M Doll which is harder to spell). I like the way you made the ribbon from the paper. Please explain how you made the ribbon.
