You Are My Sunshine

Hello, Ribbon Lovers!  Here's a sunny summer card that's sure to brighten your day.  Pink and yellow is one of my favorite summer color palettes.  So I tied a pretty bow with 3/8"  Maize Checkerboard Satin Ribbon and topped it with with a loopy Pink Burlap String Bow. Then I tucked it behind a summery Mixed Peach/Orange/White Chrysanthemum and Red/White Cherry Blossom floral cluster.  It really brought the summer vibe to this pretty little card. 

Hope you all get to go out and enjoy some summer sunshine today!

Cheerio,

Watermelon Friends Pocket Card

Hello, Ribbon Lovers!  I'm here today with a slice of summertime goodness!  To me, summer doesn't officially start until I've enjoyed my first slice of sweet juicy watermelon.  So I've topped this adorable friendship card with a double serving of Watermelon Plaid Ribbon.

I love it when I can find just the right color ribbon to finish off a project.  And when that ribbon also happens to be plaid, then I'm doubly happy!    This Watermelon Plaid Ribbon ties the prettiest bows!

Nothing says "party" like a banner does, so I've topped my card with a little fussy cut banner.  Pink Burlap String tops it and the ice cream tag on the cover.  

 I've also threaded some little ribbon scraps through the legs of a paper clip.  Top it off with a pink posy and you've got a mighty cute handmade embellishment. 

The inside of the card is sweet and simple with a little spot to write a greeting and a tag pocket combo.  You could easily tuck a little gift card in here, too.

I hope you are enjoying your summer time crafting!

Cheerio,

kathy
