I thought this was the perfect opportunity to make a card for our future neighbors across the street, the house has been for sale for almost a year and I'm excited for someone to finally move in.

The Friends of Speedy TV challenge this week is creative uses for ribbon, join us here for a chance to win a stamp set: http://www.mfpspeedytv.ning.com/.
I don't know how creative my idea for ribbon was, but I decided to make a tablecloth to put under my teacups. The ribbon itself was the color inspiration, white with yellow flowers. I cut out cups in different dp and raised them with foam tape on a new Cottage Cutz doily die.
