My first sketch at 52 Sketches!

52 Sketches 52 Weeks - Sketch # 16
"gifts!"

So I'm trying my hand at creating a few more layouts and finally got up the courage to enter 52 Sketches. Here's my entry to last week's and it turned out pretty well. The background PP is (yes!) from my SEI "collection" bought last week, the light aqua PP is from a K&Co paper pack that I won from waaay back (almost a year ago). The white ribbon is the last few inches from the one given by Lia from 2 years ago (I really believe in using every piece!).

What I love about this is, apart from the light color (which is not the usual red and green), I used something new (at least for me) - sticking some cotton string to the inner edge of the shaped paper.
