Ok – die Freude, dass ich doch noch eine Runde weiter bin bei Last Scrapper Standing trübte sich etwas in dem Moment, als ich die nächste Herausforderung las: Benutze Ribbon bis zum geht nicht mehr. Jeder, der meine Layouts kennt, weiß, dass¸ ich fast niiiiieee Ribbon benutze – ich sammele es nur – LOL. Aber gut – hier mein Ergebnis. Ich sag Euch, die anderen Layouts von den restlichen 40 Leuten sind der Knüller.

Oh well – I was totally happy that I made it to the next round of Last Scrapper Standing until I read the next Challenge: Use Ribbon like craze. Oh boy, everyone who knows me, knows that I usually don’t use ribbons on my layouts – I just hoard it – LOL. Ok – here you go. I tell you, those other 40 entries are killer cool.

*Family Party*ÂÂ – Wallhanger

Journaling reads: Uncle Oswald, always the life of a good part! ~1910

The photo shows Oswald Vogt (one of my ancestors) with a bottle of wine in the back. My great uncle Walter had given me this photo and wrote the explanation family part onto the back. In the front you will see my really stern (maybe even grumpy) looking great great grandparents ;-)

I used a 8.5×12 piece of cardstock and added GlimmerMist too it – which peeks through the vintage laces. I wove sequins and a ribbon through the white ribbon. Added brads to the thick shoe lace.
There is a magnifying glass thingi over Uncle Oswalds face. Painted and stamped the chipboard photo turn. I used 13 different ribbons. The wooden handle for hanging the layout to the wall is taken from a wine bottle case holder. The photo is mounted to another piece of chipboard which is raised . I painted it with crackle paint and added Glimmer Mist on top – then heated it almost till it smoked – LOL -with the heat gun.
