Fun Sketch Challenge

The Paper Players did another fun challenge this week. I am finding they really inspire me to create fun cards. This layout was a great way for me to expand my abilities. It took a while to get the colors right, but when I decided to put the white ribbon on the white strip of paper, the card was complete. I love the way it turned out.
