Well for these cards I have kept to the plain white theme again but simply added in some colour using the ribbon
The Spellbinders used on the cards are listed below and they have all been made to the Hinged Card style.
This bow is a Double Bow with Tails and has been created with the Bow Maker that is now for sale in My Shop
I have used is a good quality 300gsm card that I bought at the craft show and it is from Anna Marie Designs
It is pure white, super smooth and can go through some printers and the finished effect is excellent ... aaaaaaand it looks wonderful when embossed !!
The flower on this blue ribboned card was one of many that I sat one night and created while watching the telly.
I had some buttons in my "Stash" that can be covered and so I used the same ribbon to do that too and added it to the flower centre.
But it just shows what a difference a little colour can add to an all white card.
Quick and easy to do if you need a card in a hurry.
Then with the addition of some pearls ... or the Diamante buckle the card can look really special for you to give with love ....
So there we have three plain cards all created to the same style ... all kept to basic white ... but all looking totally different to each other.

Christina can you please tell me how you get the triple layer ribbon through the diamonte buckle? I love all your cards and have been trying to figure out how you do that. Thank you for your gift and skill.

Amazing cards Christina, I absolutely love the white cards with just a splash of colour with the ribbon. I especially like the blue ribbon and the black one. I love looking on your site and I am working slowly through the cards, as you really are a huge inspiration to me and my cards are definately getting better since I discovered you and your site. Thank you so much and keep on crafting. Hugs, Jen :-)
