I started my card off with a hand-drawn ribbon awareness shape traced

onto a piece of stiff felt and then trimmed out:

Next, I took small snippets of ribbon in shades of red, yellow, green and blue and

adhered them to the felt with fabric glue. Afterwards, I trimmed all of the ribbons

down so that they matched up with the edge of the felt.

To keep the cut edges from fraying, I dabbed on a fray-check solution.

Finally, I searched the internet for an inspirational sentiment regarding Autism.

I printed out the sentiment and made sure that the typography didn't extend

past the window opening of the ribbon.

That's all from me! You're next stop is Valerie Gee's Blog.

I hope that you enjoy today's special blog hop...thanks for joining us!
