Ribbon with a Cause

The challenge blog, Chocolate, Coffee and Cards this week are asking us to use a ribbon on our project. The difference is for the ribbon to represent a cause. I have chosen the ribbon for Autism Awareness, which not surprising is made up of the primary colours, in jigsaw shapes, which is why my ribbon is a free download from the internet. The slogan which goes with the ribbon is 'Together we can solve the puzzle'.
I tried to use mainly primary colours on my card in a mixed sort of way. I mixed contemporary with traditional. The centre panel and butterfly were stamped and embossed for a resist technique. Adding Distress colours after it was cool. The flowers on the oval were coloured with Promarkers.  My oldest grandson is autistic, we accept there will be no cure, but we pray for the puzzle to be solved for the future.
