Your cards are SUPER cute!! :) I too have tried to make ties around things that were not meant to have ties made of ribbon!! LOL... YOU were WAY more successful than I was!! I especially love that the striped paper looks like a 'dad' shirt!! :)
Thanks so much for sharing your talent at Getting Cricky with K Andrew this week!! :)
