Light It Up Blue Hop with May Arts Ribbon

The May Arts Team is celebrating ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) today with lots of other supporters all over the world,  with out Light It Up Blue hop.  Today is intended to shine a light on autism by raising awareness. So of course, the Ribbonistas have tons of BLUE projects to share with you! And you know, we aren't going to have a hop without the Ribbon Lady giving away some fabulous ribbon - so here it is.  Leave comments on any of the blogs along the way to be eligible to win.  (The more comments you leave, the better your chances of winning!)





Now here is my blue card, just for you!


I used some of the new Faux Canvas/Lightweight 444-58-94 This is such a bright and cheerful color, I thought it was perfect to celebrate this day.  Not only did I add the lovely bow, but this ribbon was perfect for making photo corners.





Here's the hop line-up so you don't miss a thing!
