It's All About the Ribbon

Sometimes. . . . it all about the ribbon.  You look at something you've made, and notice it's missing something.  For me, more often than not, that "something" is a snippet of lace, ribbon or trim of some sort.  After all, that is what lead to my relationship with most any type of trim that come  by the yard, on a spool, or however it may come.  You can't get enough, in my opinion.  Before I knew it, this was what had happened to one wall of my scrap room.

And I know this will sound crazy, but there are still times when I cannot find the specific ribbon I need (or think I need) for a project.  I know, I'm crazy.  I am really just so grateful to God for all the blessings in my life - including my beautiful ribbon collection.  I am so blessed in so many ways.  I often give BAGS full of ribbon to my friends who make hair bows.  I can give away bags, and you can't even notice its missing.  That's sad.  I do, however, find it amazing how many unique and delightful laces, trims, etc. are out there.  I continue to see new things I've never seen before when I have time to "explore" on the internet.  Amazing.

Here is the card that just needed more trim.

I am entering this card in the following challenges.
