Day 8 Giveaway: Ribbons & Pansies

Filed under Collage Sheets, Contests/Winners, Giveaways, Rubber Stamps, Sale

This Giveaway has veered from all posies to all ribbons and finally gelled when I realized the new vellum paper looks great with the Ophelia #3 collage sheet…

First, there are two unmounted rubber stamps:
Ribbon Medallion
Large Ribbon Banner

Next, Scriptease Purple Vellum Scrapbook Paper. A beautiful, new paper with calligraphy script printed in copper metallic ink. Nice, heavy, iridescent vellum (semi-transparent).


A sheet of the New Pansies Dresden Scraps. 6" x 9" sheet. Die-cut and embossed (scanned against black paper). Imported from Germany.

Velvet Ric Rac
Simply gorgeous. Very soft and antiqued a little at the edges. Someone will get one yard each of Raspberry and Sweet Pea. 3/8" wide. Speaking of velvet ribbon, the Crushed Velvet Ribbons are now on sale.

Ophelia #3 (Pansies) Collage Sheet.
From Ophelia’s “mad scene” speech in Hamlet: “There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance; pray, love, remember: and there is pansies. that’s for thoughts.” “Pansies” were “pensées,” or “thoughts,” in French, a language much enmeshed with the English language of Elizabethan times.

And all the Theatre Collage Sheets are now on sale.

See the first day’s post for a recap of the Giveaway Rules.

So leave me a comment and tell your friends (the last Giveaway is Sunday).

    Purple is still one of my favorite colors and with the added bonus of velvet. If this isn’t heaven it’s pretty close to it.
