Oh Pretty…. Ribbon and Sparkles

I am hosting another fabulous challenge at The House of Gilli.

Our theme this time around is “Ribbon and Sparkles”. There are so many pretty ribbons out there. If you are like me you have loads and loads of ribbons. Yes I am a bit obsessed with ribbons and bakers twine and paper well let’s not go there. LOL

We challenge you to show us what you have with Ribbon and Sparkles on it. If you have a Gilli we would love to see it, if not no worries we love seeing your projects.

Today I have for you Gilli as a cowgirl. Is’t she just adorable. She is all deck out in her cowgirl outfit for a night of dancing.

Gilli is colored with my copic markers and little extra shading is done with colored pencils. Gilli’s shirt is covered with sparkle aka stickles.

My paper is from K and Company Sweet Nectar. I matched the copic colors to the paper. I would not have thought about using yellow with the pink but I really like the way it looks together. My die cut is a new one that I just got from Cherry Lynn. My ribbon is some that I picked up from AC Moore on clearance. It is much prettier in person.

I added a few pearls around just for a little extra. I hope you will join us for our challenge. Be sure and put your entry in the INLINKZ at the bottom of the page.

Thanks for stopping by today and don’t forget to check out House Of Gilli.

Beautiful card Jo. It is my favorite Gilli. I am thinking of using her on our rodeo theme. Love how you colored her and love all the flourishes you used.
