The sketch for the Stamping 411 challenge this weekend is an easy one. I used Deck the Halls Designer Paper, the Boughs and Bells stamp set, and Always Artichoke 1/2" seam binding to make my response to the sketch. It is the first time I have tried the ruffled ribbon tech using sticky tape to adhere it to the card. I think it turned out pretty well.
