No sponsor this week - just for fun!

This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using

your Favourite: Ribbon or Twine (& why).

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Here are the beautiful creations made by our Design Team to get your mojo flowing:

Annette

This is an easy choice for me as I have a huge box of ribbon rolls, in various colours, textures and widths. My favourite is a lovely 15mm satin ribbon tied in a double bow, which beautifully frames the festive image that I've watercoloured for today's card. I love the softness of the ribbon and the beautiful range of colours to accent my card.

Brenda

I love ribbon and have a very nice stash of it, but I seem to use twine more often. I love the rustic, grungy look of it and the fact that it isn't so thick.

Chrissy

Not a big ribbon user but I do love my twine, be it, leather, string or whatever

to tie up my booklets...

Elaine

I don't use ribbon or twine too often, but I do have lots in my stash. I am not the best at making bows so a simple knot looks better on my cards.

Larissa

I love using twine, because it is thin and easy to use. I love the look of it.

Lynne

I do use both but, with this style of card, I think ribbon with a little bow is more suitable.

Sarah

Since I have branched out into journalling and other forms of papercrafting, twine has been my favourite. Here I have used it as fastenings for this folio.
