Get Well Card

Hi everyone! Leslie here, sharing a Really Reasonable Ribbon DT inspiration project with you today, a pretty get well card I created using the absolutely gorgeous White Sheer Organza with Satin Center and Wine Organza ribbon. Both of these ribbons are so pretty and the organza really makes nice fluffy bows! ;)

Yep, you guessed it... I created this gorgeous bow with my Bow-it-All v2.0! Creating bows couldn't be any easier with this awesome tool!

One-of-a-Kind

Hi everyone! Leslie here, sharing a Really Reasonable Ribbon DT inspiration project with you today, a fun thank you card. I used the absolutely gorgeous Noble Peacock Seam Binding. I'm sure I've said before that seam binding is my all-time favorite ribbon. I love wrinkling it which is really easy - I spritz it with water, wad it up and hit it with shorts bursts of heat from my heat tool to set the wrinkles.

I created this gorgeous fluffy bow with my Bow-it-All v2.0. :)

Happy Birthday with a Ribbon Slider Buckle

Welcome back Really Reasonable Ribbon bloggers.  I bought some ribbon slider buckles at various stores while in Boise for my granddaughter's basketball tournament.  I was so impressed with bows made with these ribbon slider buckles used from various people in our Really Reasonable Ribbon challenges, I wanted to start using them for some of my bows. 

All of these supplies along with the stunning Wild Orchid Craft flowers are from the Really Reasonable Ribbon on-line store.  The gorgeous ribbon is the Shimmer Satin Shell Grey and I couldn't have created this bow without the Zutter Bow-It-All bow maker.  The ribbon is attached to the card with the 3/8" Scor-Tape.

Best of Luck

Welcome back.  I'm excited to share with you one of the beautiful ribbons which is two-sided in February's Ribbon Club Month assortment from Really Reasonable Ribbon.com. 

Do you know that St. Patrick's Day is right around the corner?  It's Thursday, March 17th,  Thia beautiful green and yellow ribbon assortment would be perfect for those St. Patrick's Day projects or cards.  Really Reasonable Ribbon also sells each ribbon separately from the club assortment as well.

This gorgeous two-sided ribbon is the 3/8" Crosshatch on Emerald Satin Ribbon.  It has the green and white print on one side and the solid emerald green color on the other side.  WOW!

I used my Zutter Bow It All bow maker to make this bow.  This time, I formed one bow and then cut the ribbon to form the other bow and tied the green ribbon around the printed ribbon.  I used the 3/8" Scor-Tape to stick the bow and ribbon onto the card.  Bonnie has a great tutorial to do these bows without cutting the ribbon and would suggest watching her U-Tube video https://www.pinterest.com/pin/175499716706586900/.

If you really love ribbon and would like to have a wonderful assortment of ribbons sent to you automatically each month, just join the Really Reasonable Ribbon Club! Monthly ribbon club assortments are selected and pre-packed to reflect a specific theme, color, or holiday season. The assortments vary from month to month, but an average assortment has 9 different ribbon styles and consists of 16-18 yards of ribbon.  The total price of each monthly assortment is $9.50 and includes the shipping/handling fee too!

Scrapy Land.com dies used:

Sue Wilson Designs:  Expression-Best Of Luck, Delicate Garden Frame and Tag, Gemini Die-Orion

Sue Wilson Designs:  Rambling Blossom

Would enjoy hearing from you.  Please leave a comment and if you have questions, I will reply or just e-mail me at lehill@mtida.net.  Thanks again for stopping by!!!

Happy Birthday Wishes

Hi everyone.  I'm back again today with a fun and girly birthday card featuring some pretty ribbons from the brand new February Ribbon Club Assortment from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

This fabulous February assortment contains lots of yummy greens.  It's great for St. Paddy's Day, Spring or whatever you want.  Pull in some of the pinks from the January assortment and the colors really sing!

This assortment contains 9 styles and a total of 18 yards of ribbony goodness.  Not a member yet?  JOIN TODAY and begin with this wonderful assortment.  What a great way to build your ribbon stash and try new ribbon styles.  You'll always have the perfect ribbon for any project.

My dies are all from Cheery Lynn Designs and that gorgeous Quadrafoil Doily in my new favorite!  The roses are also handmade using Cheery Lynn Rose dies.

My beaufiful bi-color double-loop bow is the real show stopper.  It's made using 5/8" Sherbet Deliciate Stitched Satin Ribbon and 5/8" Emerald Plaid Ribbon from the February Ribbon Club Assortment.  The bow was created on my Bow-it-All V2.0.  I also ran a strip of the 5/8" Pistachio Satin with Grosgrain Edge Ribbon topped with 3/8" Mixed Green Vertical Stripe Ribbon across the middle of the card under the sentiment for more texture.  Both of those styles are from the February assortment as well.  I love the mix of darker green and lighter 'yellowy - green' colors.  Add in a zing of pink and it's really quite eye catching.

Sending Love to You

Hi friends.  Today I have gorgeous ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon, beautiful dies from Cheery Lynn Designs and pink all mixed together in one card.  You can't go wrong with  that, right!

I'm loving the open look on card fronts lately.  Isn't it cool?!  This Honeycomb frame die from Cheery Lynn Designs is great for this because the die just cuts out the holes in the design.  It does not cut a rectangular frame around the outside edge.  When you add an image to the front it also covers enough that you can add a sentiment to the inside and it won't show though the lacy card front.

My bow is a simple double-loop bow made with 5/8" Fantasy Rose Diamond Satin Ribbon created on my Bow-it-All V2.0.  Sometimes a simple classic bow is the perfect touch.

Peach Valentine Box

Welcome back.  Time is going by fast and already it is my day to share some beautiful ribbons and Wild Orchid Craft flowers from Really Reasonable Ribbon.com with you.  I hope you are keeping watch each day visiting the Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog to see what our fantastic designers have for you as well as participating in our challenges. 

If you have been following my blog, I am making a variety of Valentine boxes filled with chocolate and jewelry  for each of my grand children, daughters, and daughter-in-laws.  This one is called my Peach Valentine Box.

I am loving the peach and lavender colors this year and this very gorgeous coral/peach ribbon is called the Light Coral Double-Face Satin ribbon and it comes in four widths.  I used the 7/8" size but will have to make sure that I have all of the sizes of ribbon and flowers in my stock since spring is coming and coral/peach colors are gorgeous for this time of year.  The beautiful and delicate lace ribbon is the 7/8" Betsy White Crochet Lace and behind the bow is the 1 1/2" white netting.   All of the variety of  Wild Orchid Craft flowers came from Really Reasonable Ribbon. 

Really Reasonable Ribbon also sells Scor-Tape and the Zutter Bow-It-All V2 bow maker.  I used the 1.5" Scor-Tape to attach the bow onto the box.  I use this Scor-Tape to attach all of my bows since I can arrange the ribbon on the bow and move it around until I get the arrangement I want.  Afterwards, the ribbons on the bow stay in the exact place I want them.  I used the Zutter Bow-it-All V2 to make this two ribbon bow.

Other supplies used were:
Bazzill Peach Card stock
Cheery Lynn Designs-Heart To Heart Frame (Made the entire heart shape box using this set)
Wee Stamp - Sylvia Zet - Maya (digital)
Sue Wilson Designs - Petite Vinery and Scandinavian Corner

Thank you for visiting  and I would appreciate your comment below.  Have a Happy Valentine's Day soon.

Red Valentine Heart Box

Today is my day on the Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog, to share with you one of my seven  Valentine's chocolate or jewelry boxes that I made so far using the gorgeous ribbon, tape, flowers and the fantastic Zutter Bow-it-All V2.0 bow maker from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

 
If you are following my blog, I am using different images, colors and ribbons on each Valentine's  box that I am making for each of my grandchildren.  I hope to have the tutorial on how to make the heart shaped boxes using the largest of the Cheery Lynn Heart to Heart dies on my blog this coming week.  For the Really Reasonable Ribbon challenge on January 22nd, another Valentine's box with a variety of different Wild Craft flowers, ribbons and images will be posted on my blog.



I love the red and white plaid ribbons with the 1 1/2" red netting behind the bow.  I always attach my bows with Scor-Tape.  Really Reasonable Ribbon offers a variety of Scor-Tape sizes.  I used 1 1/2" Scor-Tape for attaching most of my bows on cards and projects.  My bows are always formed using the Zutter Bow It All V2 bow maker.   The cute little hearts are from Impression Obsession-Heart Stem die, the gorgeous butterfly are from the Cheery Lynn Butterfly Set #2 and the green leaf stem is the Sue Wilson-Delicate Fronds.    The center die is the Cheery Lynn Heart To Heart set and the top and bottom of the heart shape box were cut from the largest of this die set.  I made this hat pin.

The side of this Valentine's heart box is the beautiful 5/8" Elastic Double Ruffle Red Plaid ribbon and behind it is the Sue Wilson- Scandinavian Border. 

I am using some of these boxes for jewelry and the others for chocolates for Valentine's Day. 

Keep visiting the Really Reasonable Ribbon blog to continue to see the wonderful projects and cards that Really Reasonable Ribbon Designers have for you.  Can't wait to see what you have created!

Happy Halloween!

Hi friends.  Happy Halloween to all!  
The big day is finally here and all the cute little ghosts and goblins will be running around the neighborhood having fun and collecting treats today.  I'm finishing out the Halloween crafting season for this year with one more 'too cute to be scary' Halloween card embellished with some of my favorite ribbons from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

The Black Houndstooth Plaid Ribbon is one of my new favorite ribbons.  There is a HUGE selection of plaid and gingham ribbon styles at Really Reasonable Ribbon and it's really hard to pick a favorite!

My pretty double-loop bow was created on my Bow-it-All V2.0 Tool.  It's so quick and easy to tie gorgeous bows with this tool!  To view all my Bow-it-All video tutorials, please click HERE.

I also ran a piece of the black houndstooth plaid ribbon across the center of the card and topped it with the super cute Itsy Bitsy Spider Grosgrain Ribbon.  This one if my very favorite Halloween styles.  How can you not love those adorable spiders?!!

Believe...

Hello friends.  Bonnie here today with a fun Christmas card using glittery metallic ribbons and some pretty Wild Orchid Crafts open roses from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

I went with a non-traditional color scheme on this one, but I think it works really well.  This was a really quick and easy card to put together.  It's really just several layered die cuts with a digital stamp sentiment.  I also dry embossed the white layer with a snowflake embossing folder.

I finished my card off with some pretty Mulberry Paper Roses and an attention grabbing bi-color double-loop bow with the beautiful and sparkly Glitz Ribbon using my Bow-it-All V2.0.

Season's Greetings

Hi there crafty peeps!  I am back today to share with you a quick old world Christmas inspired card I whipped up from my Retro Christmas Creativity Kit from Polly's Paper on Etsy and ribbons from the Really Reasonable Ribbon store.

I used several layers of printed paper and images from the kit to create a beautiful layered card.  I added a belly band with Ivory Double Faced Satin and Bright Green Swiss Dots Grosgrain Ribbons.  I made a double loop bow from the same Ivory Satin Ribbon with my Bow-It-All tool and added that to the middle left side of the card. Finally, I added some Journey glaze to the letters, Candy Cane, and Holly.  I sprinkled some sparkling Journey Sparkle Dust onto the candy cane and sentiment tag to create a more "Holiday" feel.  I hope you enjoy my card and it inspires you to dig out your Holiday supplies and get a start on the season.  Have a wonderful day!

Please, Please (DON'T) Let it Snow!

Hi friends.  I hope your summer is going well.  I'm with you if you dislike seeing holiday stuff appearing on shelves and online already, but if you are a crafter, you need to start planning now if you want to kick back when December arrives and enjoy the holiday.....  So, how many of you have actually ever accomplished that??  Certainly not me but it sounds really nice, doesn't it?

Well, ready or not, Christmas will be here before you know it and Really Reasonable Ribbon is ready with a full selection of Autumn, Halloween AND Christmas styles in stock and ready to go.  Shop early for the best selection.

My bi-color double-loop bow is made using 5/8" Christmas Red/Green Plaid and 5/8" Emerald Delicate Stitched Satin Ribbon on my Bow-it-All V2.0.  For a video tutorial on how to create this gorgeous bow, please click HERE.

I just love how a beautiful bow is the perfect finishing touch for a card, don't you?

Dragonfly Birthday Wishes

Have I mentioned how in love I am with all the beautiful colors and styles of Mulberry Flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts that we are now offering at Really Reasonable Ribbon?  Well, I am IN LOVE!!  If you haven't been by to take a look lately, head on over because there are loads of new options in the store.

I pulled my color combination from the image and used purple and light turquoise.  You never have to twist my arm to use purple on a card!  I used flowers from each of the sets below to embellish my card.

35mm Trellis Roses Mixed Blue Tone

25mm Cottage Roses Mixed Purple/Lilac

White Aster Daisy Stem Flowers  

These are a new offering and they are available in 8 colors.

I created my bi-color double-loop bow with grape and turquoise Delicate Stitched Satin Ribbon which is my all time favorite ribbon.  The bow was made using my Bow-it-All V2.0 Tool.  You can view my video tutorial on how to make this fun bow HERE.

Don't forget about the wide range of bow sizes you can make with your Bow-it-All Tool.  You can make bows from 1/4" all the way up to 9-3/4" wide.  I whipped up the tiny 1/4" bow made from purple Burlap String in seconds to top off my sentiment panel.
