Ribbon,Flower and Buttons Card !

"My Time To Craft" have set the challenge to make something which includes a piece of ribbon...a flower...and two buttons...so here is my effort (a card) for the challenge.
I am also entering it in the "Lots To Do" challenge as theirs is "Recycle "
So what bit is recycled then ...Lol.....?
It's the silver embossed centre.....!
I used a silver foil lid ...the type used on take-aways...and put it through my Bigshot using a Cuttlebug folder. I do hasten to add it wasn't a used lid !!!( I got a mound of lids from my local "Scrapstore" )
I twisted the ribbon and glued it with photoglue( as I've found this glue doesnt seep through the ribbon).
I enjoyed making this so I hope you like it !

Cuttlebug Tip ....!

Here is a way of having two tone paper when embossing with your Cuttlebug.

Using a brayer,roll ink (I used pigment ink) over the debossed (indented) side on the inside of your Cuttlebug folder. Place cardstock inside as normal and put through your Cuttlebug as usual. Hey presto...and its done !
Ink can be cleaned off your folder, after use, with baby wipes.
(This doesn't seem to work very well if you don't use a brayer)
Hope you like this tip....if you do I'll post a few more...!

I am wondering what black card would look like if I use versamark ink and emboss it in gold....I may have another play later......
