Today, we have a very special guest post for you! Tracy Wegener over at over at Paper Crafter's Library was kind enough to create this lovely card for us. Now if you haven't heard of this fabulous site yet, here's a little bit about them:
The world of paper crafting is HUGE! Whether you are a beginner, or you’ve been creating for years, the sheer number of different products, tools, techniques and project ideas can be overwhelming. After spending 6 years helping thousands of paper crafters around the world become more successful in the creative space through her series of kits, digital tutorials and online classes, Andrea Walford began looking for a new approach to education. In 2011 she launched Paper Crafter’s Library – the first, and still to this day, only website that provides an all-in-one learning solution for paper crafters. With almost 800 videos currently in their library and 4-5 new videos added each week, Paper Crafter’s Library offers comprehensive training on products, tools, techniques, and project ideas. From beginner through to advanced, whether your interest is in stamping, card making, scrapbooking, creating 3D items or altered art – you’ll find all the resources you need to navigate the world of paper crafting in ONE place, organized and indexed so that it’s quick and easy to find.
And now for her project:
We are under a deep freeze and I needed a pick me up! My two favourite things are ribbon and glitter, so I headed straight for our May Arts ribbon collection. I absolutely love the color pink and May Arts has designed this spectacular Pink Elastic/Plaid Ruffled ribbon. With my ribbon selected, the Valentine's Day theme just felt right. The pink in their ribbon inspired me to die cut the heart and layer the ribbon to add the amazing texture to my card. I feel that the addition of the small glittered heart and greeting complimented the texture from the ribbon, finishing off the Hugs & Kisses card.

What a fantastic idea to use this great ribbon for the heart. I am getting lots of good ideas from you and other blogs that I go do each week.
Fabulous idea! I've seen twine wrapped under a cutout but not ribbon, particularly not ruffly ribbon. Looks fantastic!
What a stunning card and such a lovely use of ribbon.
Very pretty with the ruffly ribbon.
What an adorable card! I need some of that ribbon!
What a perfect way to use the frilly ribbon!
That is one darling card. I LOVE the ribbon treatment.
Love your use of that frilly gathered gingham, Tracy!! Perfect for Valentine's Day!
I love this ribbon, so many great uses!
