It’s challenge time at There She Goes and this week our challenge is bought to us by Candice! She has challenged us to make a card or project using metal embellisments.

Now when I first started cardmaking I bought so much stuff! And being the slight hoarder that I am, I still have plenty of it left. Hidden away on a shelf is a tub of metal bits and pieces. I dug around in there and found this ribbon slide. Now it’s been in that tub a while but I think it was from Making Memories. I could be wrong however!

I looped the ribbon behind the patterned paper and through the slide, holding everything in place with a bunch of glue dots. Oh and isn’t that elephant adorable. I tried to colour his cheeks a little pink for the embarrased look but it’s not showing up that well in this photo.

So do you fancy having a go? You could delve into the jar of brads I know we all have, or you could raid the sewing box for pins, buckles or a metal button ….
