Morning Peeps, it's Saturday and time for a new challenge at Allsorts where our host is Wendy who would like us to use some 'Ribbon' on your creations. This weeks lucky winner will receive a bundle of assorted ribbons from Crafty Ribbons.
My shares are two Hochanda TV shares from earlier in the year but not blogged so today's challenge seems the perfect time. Ribbon is not something I use on my Chocolate Baroque samples very often as the stamps are so detailed and beautiful it's a shame to detract from them, so these are an exception.
The background of the tri-fold has a mixture of distress inks, texture paste and stencilling and the flowers from Punky Hearts and Punky Flower sets have been stamped, coloured and cut out to add to the frames.
The same Roses here, this time stamped three times onto a stencilled background, coloured in and a sentiment tied with ribbon.
Hope you all have a good weekend and my thanks as always for taking the time to visit.

Love the stencil used 2 ways in your tri fold, a way to get variation but without adding too many different patterns. I have a bit of that unusual ribbon too, keeping it for best as it so delicate and original. Have a great weekend Brenda. x
Two gorgeous cards . You do make such interesting backgrounds for your images. I have a few stencils but never think to get them out as my default marker is to go to my design papers which are mostly freebies from magazines so I always feel the need to use them. Not so logical really as ?I have paid for the stencils to just sit in a draw. Hope your feeling better. My shoulder is starting to ease up now so guess I’m in stage two of it getting better. Hugs Mrs A.
Fabulous flowers and I love the triptych - that is exquisite Brenda.
Hope you are feeling well and the kidneys are not giving you any trouble
Blessings

two beautiful cards, Brenda. Love those backgrounds. I have been using stencils more and papers less, especially with distress oxides. Ribbons aren't something I use regularly either...might have to get my thinking cap on for that one, lol
Two stunning cards, Brenda. x
Wonderful B! (hoping BRenda's return is not a celebratory one!) xx
Lovely, inky backgrounds on both, full of interest and texture. Two wonderful cards.

Beautiful cards Brenda, and it's great how the same stamp can look so different with varies colours, beautifully designed, Kate x
These are two great cards, love the idea of stamping the image three times. Have a great weekend.x
Two beautiful cards Brenda, the design of the first one is gorgeous with such lovely colours and the second has such a lovely image. Hope you are having a good weekend.

Ciao Brenda, che bel trittico!! Mi piace molto come hai fatto gli sfondi con gli stencils e i bellissimi fiori di Cioccolato Barocco spiccano benissimo! Il nastro che hai usato è delicato e non distrae troppo l'occhio, anzi, dà dimensione!
Anche la card i giallo e rosso è molto bella ed elegante, mi ricorda una scatola di cioccolatini con quel grande fiocco rosso e le belle rose stilizzate!
Qui ieri c'erano freddo, vento e cielo coperto da nuvole nere, ma niente pioggia. Oggi di nuovo sole e caldo. Nessuno sa come bisogna vestirsi al mattino: stivali e giacca, oppure maglietta con maniche corte e ciabattine? ...
Buon weekend, spero che ci sia un po' di sole anche da te.
Beautiful floral cards Brenda, I cannot believe how different the roses look!! xx
Two gorgeous cards Brenda, I love all the backgrounds you create, and the flowers are so pretty.

Two stunning cards Brenda, some lovely floral stamps and super backgrounds, love the multi coloured ribbon that match the colours of your card and the huge brilliant bow on the second card.

Very beautiful cards.
I can certainly see why these were part of the Hochanda Experience! Brenda, the stamps are fantastic and I love what you have done with them! Wonderful colors. Hugs, de
Super card Brenda and I love organza ribbon, xxx
Stunning as always.x
Two beautifull cards, Brenda. Loving all these flowers!
Both are beautiful, but the colours and not to much ribbon on your trifold are my favorite. You're so right the CB-stamps are so detailed that it is hard to use any ribbon with them! Hugs, Gerrina
Stunning cards, love the first one, so special;-))m
Every time I see your lovely trifold makes I think I must try to do one! They are so effective - just love the different backgrounds on this one. What a lovely lush bow on your second card too.
gorgeous tagcard and a beautiful card Brenda
