Thank You Card Using Cricut Artistry and Cricut Artiste Cartridges

Hello friends. I hope you are all having time to craft.  It seems like life gets in the way sometimes of trying to find enough time to do it all.  LOL!  I thought it was supposed to be warmer today again; but I just checked and it says it is only 66 degrees.  We have very high winds; but we are supposed to get back in the 80's for most of the week.  What is your weather like where you are?  

I create cards for my CTMH customers each month; so I finally finished the ones for March. I thought I would try different ribbons to see if they made the card look different or still the same.  I think it changed the way they look; but you tell me what you think.  The colors may look different; but they are all the same colors.  Sometimes the pictures just don't all turn out the same. Do the ribbons make a difference in the card?  Which are your top three choices, based on the ribbon? Everything is the same except the ribbon.

Card #2 - American Crafts Ribbon


Card #3 - Craftsmart Ribbon (Michael's)
