May Arts is offering a fantastic prize $25 at RibbonResource.com so head over and check out all the details on MayArts.com:
As summer is so busy I am keeping it simple. This stamp feels like a lazy summer day... I stamped it on a piece of filter paper and colored it with water color pencils. The translucent nature of the filter paper is fun to play with so I layered it over newsprint style paper. My card base is a chalkboard paper that I distressed with a sanding block. Tying the burlap and velvet ric rac ribbons is a fun pop of color and texture.
Supplies:
3/8 Inch Velvet Ric Rac Ribbon: WR14 - RED
Stampedous - Tree House
Stazon - Gray
filter paper
water color pencils
water brush
newprint paper
adhesive
