Last minute as usual

Hi again,
Nothing for a week, then three posts in one day! You'd think I'd nothing else to do.

It's Friday again, that means it's Challenge time over at  Simply Less is More . One of these weeks I will get my entry in BEFORE Friday.
It's Week 64 and the theme is HOW CHARMING. You have to make and/or use a charm on your project. This month the challenges are being sponsored by The Ribbon Girl , they stock some beautiful little charms, as well as all the gorgeous ribbons and things, to add to cards and other projects.
Here this weeks entry ....

Even though it wasn't a one layer week I still kept it clean and simple.
The embossed panel was done using a Cuttlebug embossing folder (Kimmie luvs) and then trimmed slightly to fit onto a 6x6 card.  I threaded the silver grey ribbon through the wedding bells charm and then attached it at the back of the panel.
sweet little wedding bells charm
The whole thing was then mat onto silver grey pearlescent cardstock and the bottom edge was finshed with a fancy border punch from Stampin'Up.  I added a matching bow to the charm and stamped my sentiment on the bottom corner of the card.
Quick and simple but very effective.  Hope you like it.

Well I think that's it for this week, short and sweet.  Hope you all have a lovely weekend.  I'm starting on the packing I think, well there is only 18 days to our moving date!  I'll be back next week though I have some exciting news (ooh!!)

Thanks for stopping by

Hi Linda, thanks for the visit and lovely comment, it's always a pleasure to meet a new friend.

What a wonderful card you have created. I've not seen that Cuttlebug Embossing folder but it's wonderful and I love the charm, so adorable!

Good luck moving, and look forward to your exciting news.

Thanks for stopping by to visit me, Linda. I adore your beautiful wedding card! The charm is so sweet - just the perfect extra touch, but it would have been a beautiful card without it, too!
