Wowzers!! This is a beautiful card for a male birthday. You really rocked this one. Gorgeous colors and details. I'll be spending more time reading exactly how you created this. We are having a nasty thunder and lightning storm right now, so need to turn the computer off. Linda S. in NE

Wow, what a gorgeous card. I love the colors and all of the techniques that you used, again, wow. I like how you did the bricks and the aged wall or torn area, you did one of the best jobs with that technique, that I have seen. I have to go and see your instructions, I would like to try and make this card for a female. Again, I love this card!

Supplies: Cardstock: Crushed Curry, Not Quite Navy 'Patterns' DSP. Rub-ons: 'Fashion District'.Ribbon: 1/2" Polka Dot Grosgrain 'Crushed Curry'. Punch: 'Scallop Trim Border'.Embellishments: Trinket Key, Corduroy 'Summer Sun' and 'Daffodil Delight' brads.Misc: Sticky Pages, Heat Embossing tool, Sizzix Circle #2.

It works best with satin.....but has some interesting effects on other kinds as well. Can't wait to try it on some other projects. Thanks for the challenge 411!

Adhere a small piece of Sticky Pages in a squared. You will put it in the Big Shot to cut a circle. If you use the Sizzix Circles #2 die use next to the smallest circle. Pull the 'red' side off of the Sticky Pages circle. Cut a 15" piece of white satin ribbon. At one inch intervals....cut 'slots' in one side of ribbon. Using the uncut side start forming the ribbon around the circle from the outside in. Cut to desired length once your circle is complete. Using a needle tool....heat circle until ribbon changes characteristics. It will melt a little bit but makes a really pretty flower
