Here's my first attempt at this week's Friday Mashup idea. Heidi is so right! I do hold on to some stuff! So I was thrilled with this challenge. I used the sketch AND I used some retired DSP (just because it's retired doesn't mean that it is no good... it's not an expiration date!) I also used some ribbon that is totally recycled. I have these pegs that hang off the side of my ribbon storage unit my dad and I made. I hang pieces of ribbon there that come from gifts or other places so I'll see them and can use them should the chance arise. I don't remember where this one came from, but it totally works on this card.
I have a base of Real Red, a layer of Sahara Sand, then I used 3 different patterns of DSP, and I finally made one of those fancy fold things. I don't remember what they're called. What I do know is that I bought a scoring board before Stampin' Up came out with theirs so I used my non-SU board to emboss lines every 1/4" and made this... rosette. I stamped the sentiment from Word Play. You can kind of tell I used my crystal effects on the ornament in the middle. Speaking of ornaments, I used my ornament punch and then I punched out 3 more in red and made a layer under the sentiment ornament.
Hope you like my mashup! Thanks for looking...

I really need to clean my glasses! I didn't see this one when I came in to check out the latest entries! *sigh*

Hi! Great card. I like the non-traditional colors with the red. Very pretty! Thanks for playing the Friday Mashup! :)
Ribbon bits is probably the easiest thing to use up, I think. I love that paper!! Very cute how you added the ornament inside the accordion flower. Thanks for joining us at the Friday Mashup.
I love these colors.. They are perfect for Christmas! Great job on that Rosette, I actually jealous..lol I've been trying so hard to get one of these right and have no luck. Thanks for joining us at the Friday Mashup this week.
