Ribbon card



I made this card for the SOS ribbon challenge. I think I meet all the criteria. the ribbon I chose, was the oldest ribbon I had purchased about 1989 when I was into flower arranging. the ribbon itself is quite papery> this is the oldest ribbon I had and I have tons of it in all different colors, it was time to use up some of my old stash. I did the braiding which is a new technique for me. I colored the little mice which is also a new technique for me, and I used up some old scrap paper.
