I made this card using Stitchybear's Poppy image which is available here. It's beautiful and needs very little added to the card to make it look good. I used a large card blank from Craft UK. The red card is from Papermill and was matted on to their black card. The silhouette image was printed and I rounded the corners before adding to the left side of the card. After that I simply added three strips of Hobbycraft black borders (which I can't seem to find in their shop now!). The final touch was a strip of red velvet rik rak ribbon laid down the broad black edge.
I'm entering this in to the following challenges:
Shopping our Stash - Starts with a B - mine is black borders
Ribbon Carousel Challenge - Anything Goes with something on a spool
Bunny Zoe's Craft Challenge - Use ribbon or twine
Gingerloft Challenge - Black and White and Touch of Red
