Ribbon Carousel Challenge and giveaway info

I am a little ribbon inept.  lol  For some unknown reason, I have a difficult time using ribbon.  It's either too wide or too thin, not the right color or design, too sheer or not sheer enough.  I'm bound and determined to break through my "ribbon wall".  I have tons of ribbon and I need to use it!  When I came across the Ribbon Carousel challenge blog, I figured this would be perfect to make a break through. 

This week's Ribbon Carousel Challenge is "anything goes."  Great way to start off.  I usually start off with picking my paper, but since my ribbon is what gives me trouble, I started with that and I was on my way.

I made this card for a masculine birthday.  Nothing fancy with the ribbon, but it's there and not sitting in a box in my craftroom.  Gotta take baby steps, you know?  :) 

By the way, Create is giving away a Ribbon Carousel and Whisker Graphic's Middy Bitty Bags!  Head on over to the Create blog for all the details.  You have until Wednesday, 12 am MST, to enter so what are you waiting for?

Thanks for looking!
