Challenge 3 - Customize a Ribbon Border

Customize a Ribbon Border "No matter how you turn it or what you add to it (think buttons, lace, eyelets, and embroidery floss), ribbon is a terrific page border that can be attached in so many creative ways - with eyelets, brads, staples, embroidery floss and more."

First Post

Okay, I wanted a place to track my 52 challenges that i will be completing based on the Elsie Flanigan's 52 Challenges.
I originally started the Challenges in 2007 with high hopes and ambitions to do all 52, well even though i did over 500 pages i only did 1 Elsie challenge.
With that mind i am going to list a new challenge each week. My goal is to list these on Friday morning, so that you have the entire week to complete the challenge before the new one appears.
If you complete the challenge please post a comment in the comment section linking us to your layout (thus giving us permission to add your layout to the blog)

Please do not feel compelled to work in the order that the challenges are posted. Work at your speed and most importantly scrap because you LOVE to scrap and love your scrappin subjects!

Thanks Enjoy and much love
Pauline
