Christmas Greetings

Hello everyone and Happy Friday to you all! Today I have a sweet Christmas card I designed using Really Reasonable Ribbon's beautiful supplies! I absolutely LOVE Christmas time and decorating for the season, and I also LOVE making Christmas cards as they are so fun to design.

On my card here I used some old Christmas paper I had in my stash, and then layered it with brown and pink card stock, and sewing for embellishing. I used RRR Scotch tape refills to put my layers together and then added sewing on each layer.The foam squares I used to give it a 3-D effect. Then I added my Christmas tree and snowman from My Makers Movement which are stamps and matching dies, love them too!  Lastly I embellished with Really Reasonable Ribbon, flowers, stamens, and heart gem and of course beautiful ribbon! Love how this card turned out!

Thank you card

Hello everyone and Happy Monday to you all! today I have a special card I made for a special someone to say Thank you! Made this one using all Really Reasonable Ribbon flowers and ribbons. Love making thank you cards and using the beautiful ribbons from RRR store.

On my card for today I chose to use the beautiful Delicate Stitched(One of my many favs) in Mineral Ice color. I made two bows and set them close to each other when gluing them down. Next I placed the beautiful Chelsea Rose in pink on the green leaves, and then using other flowers I added them all. I will list them all below.

So I have to tell ya, that I had this little girl stamped up and colored in other colors, so that motivated or gave me inspiration for this one. I stamped her in club scrap black ink, and then colored her with copic markers. It was so much fun, I need to get stamping again, and use my stamps.
The thank you stamp is from Our Daily bread and is an old one. Its stamped in black too. My design papers came from a paper pad that is a 6 x 6 and I cant remember the name.

I really enjoyed making my card for today, and Hope you enjoyed my post! thank you so much!

Many Thanks Card

Hello everyone and Happy Friday to all!  Today I have a sweet Thank You card I made for Really Reasonable Ribbon using the beautiful ribbon, flowers and embellishments from the RRR store. Its been a while since I've stamped so I thought this sweet little kitty would be perfect for this thank you card.

On my card I used this darling stamp I purchased years ago, it's colored with Copic markers, and then the many thanks sentiment is a StampinUp! stamp. I used Scor-Tape, foam squares, and Scotch ATG refill to put it together and layer it. Next I used the beautiful double faced satin brown ribbon, and then the carnations, rose buds and sweetheart blossoms.  The tag is an oldie from Cheery Lynn Designs and so are the corner brackets.
I added dots to each layer using a white gel pen. I love the look of the dots on the brown. The design paper is also an oldie and I can't remember who its from, as it was scrap pieces I used.

Rolodex Decorated Pages with Photos

Hello everyone, and Happy Friday to all you all! Today I'm sharing a super fun project that I made for Really Reasonable Ribbon using beautiful ribbons, flowers, and embellishments to decorate this Rolodex.

I bought this Rolodex to add photos and information in, so these two pages have a photo and a little Journaling. They are so fun to decorate and add design paper.  I figured I would do different colors and such to each double page. On this one I used one of my favorite design papers from Heidi Swapp.  They were scrap pieces I had left over.  I added the black delicate stitched satin ribbon, and then the yellow canvas color band ribbon, and aster daisy, sweetheart blossom, and rose buds for decorations on this. I also added the bronze and green leaves to this.

The bottom page has a border die cut I used from Makers Movement and I ran the ribbon through the openings on it. Love the look. I kept the top simple, as I wanted to see the design of the flowers on the paper.

Really Reasonable Ribbon Supplies Used:
Pink Rose buds
Aster Daisy
Sweetheart Blossoms
Green Leaves
Bronze Leaves
Black Satin Delicate Stitched Ribbon
Swiss Dots Black
Tape Runner
Yellow Canvas Color Band Ribbon

Thank you so much for stopping by, and for all your wonderful sweet comments on my projects!

Floral Decorated Post it Purse

Hello everyone.  Cheryl here today with a sweet Post-It Note pad purse made for Really Reasonable Ribbon using their gorgeous ribbons, flowers and charms. It's funny, I have had this up in my cabinet for about 4 or 5 years now, and thought hmmm, I need to decorate it. I will also post a before photo of what it looked like before I decorated it.

To start with I chose some design papers I had laying around, and LOVE.  I used Mod Podge to add my design paper, and then used it over the paper once it dried to seal. Then I decided I needed to color the blue in, so I used black Copic marker, and then let it dry and sealed it with Mod Podge as well. 

To decorate I chose ribbons from Really Reasonable Ribbon that I thought went well with the color scheme here.  The black is satin, and the pink is my favorite of the canvas color band ribbons. I added some Chelsea Roses, Rose Buds, and Open Roses to this beauty. I did also use the green leaves and the bronze leaves to finish this off.

Really Reasonable Ribbon Supplies Used:

Rose Buds
Chelsea Rose
Rose
Embellishment leaves
Black Checkerboard Satin Ribbon
Canvas colored band ribbon in pink
green leaves

Shabby Chic Decorated Egg w/ Really Reasonable Ribbon

Hello everyone and Happy Wednesday to all! Today I have a super sweet Glitter Egg that I decorated with all Really Reasonable Ribbon, using the Gorgeous Ribbons, Lace, Seam Binding, and flowers that Bonnie at RRR carries. Love them all!!

On the egg I started with the lace, and used the wide Cindy lace, and Bonnie has others that are so pretty, you can find them Here. I then made a big bow out of the Delicate Stitched Ribbon, and then the Lace, and then used the Canvas Colored Band in Pink (LOVE this), of course I love all Ribbons...hehehehe 

So after doing all of my ribbon work for the bows, now its time to layer the flowers. I started with the Pink Carnation and green leaves 30mm, which now you cant see. After that I ruched up the checkered ribbon, if you pull a strand it ruches very nicely, or you can pull the plastic part at the top or the bottom, be careful when doing so, you can pull it out completely. Anyways once I did ruche it up I hot glued it under the sides of my carnation on both sides. I did add a Rose bud on both sides, however for some reason the one side fell out, and i forgot to hot glue it. I also added some Aster Daisy's as well.

**I save all my stems from all these flowers, I try to cut them up high close to the flower, and then I can use the wire to tie my bows. Its nice to recycle and use up all the wire for other things.

Really Reasonable Ribbon Supplies:

Lace (cindy)

1/2" checkered ribbon, green ,ivory, pink

Delicate Stitched Satin Pearl Pink Ribbon

Canvas Colored Band Pink Ribbon

Pink Carnations Mixed

30mm green leaves

10mm open roses

aster daisy

Pink Rose  2-tone pink buds

Seam Binding Rose petal

other supplies:

Plastic Easter Egg(walmart)

Hot Glue Gun

Wire(I save all the stems from the Really Reasonable Ribbon Flowers)

Floral Pocket with Tag

Hello everyone, and Happy Monday to you all!
Today I have a sweet little pocket and tag decorated with Really Reasonable Ribbon's beautiful ribbons, flowers, and bronze embellishments. I really enjoyed making this darling little pocket that will be added to one of my mini albums at a later date.

On my pocket I started with the Satin Swiss Dots Ribbon Black.  I made a big bow, then added the Canvas Colored Band with Stitched Edge Pink as another bow on top. Next I chose to make a ruched up floral piece to add on top of that using the checkered ribbon with the stitched edge in geen/ivory/pink. It's really easy to do, all you do is pull the plastic string part from inside the ribbon at the top and it makes it ruche up so pretty.  You can make flowers or whatever you like to add to your flower clusters. I even made one for the tag.

For the floral cluster I chose to use the pink carnation, and a few different rose buds in pinks and white. Then I used the mini sweetheart blossoms in pink, and also the aster daisy in a light pink. For the window doors I used the beautiful bronze embellishments.

I love the design papers I used for this.  They came from a paper stack called Heidi Swapp. I made the tag so it would fit inside the pocket.  It's nice to have these done and ready for mini albums, as you can add them at a later date.

Sweet Gift Bag and Gable Box

Hello everyone, 

Today I wanted to share a couple of the bags and boxes I made for Valentine's Day last week. The two I'm sharing were made for my friend Jennette, and the gable box was made for my husband. I had also made another bag for my doctor and then another gable box for my Mom. I used lots of fun Really Reasonable Ribbon flowers, lace, leaves, stamens, and goodies on these boxes and bags.  I really just enjoyed making them to give away, it felt so good!

The bags, they were up in my cabinets.  You know, I had these for a long time, they were kinda flimsy, but after adding the good design paper around them they ended up being super sturdy and very very nice bags, strong enough to hold a heavy large chocolate candy kiss and several other items.

Adding Paper- after  gluing and using Scotch tape runner and 5/8" Scor-Tape (helps to keep paper on WELL)  to put my paper on, I added the beautiful Really Reasonable Ribbon Gabrielle Off White Lace. I also used the beautiful Pearl Pink Delicate Satin Ribbon to create a beautiful big bow, then added the darling Strawberry Brownie Stitch grosgrain ribbon on top of that. I then made my glass flowers using Cheery Lynn's flower dies (my makersmovement) and placed an 8mm white flatbacked pearl in the center of it.

Cluster of flowers and dies-

So I cut out a heart filigree piece using shimmer card stock, then added my white swirls (Cheery Lynn) and placed my Really Reasonable Ribbon White Leaves, Chelsea Rose, Rose buds, Stamens, carnation, Sweetheart Blossoms and such by using hot glue. The CottageCutz Hedgehogs were colored using Copics and then placed using RRR foam tabs. I really had so much fun decorating up the bag here. I will link all supplies used below from the Really Reasonable Ribbon store.

The rose was from the roses he had sent to me, I figured it would be nice in the photo.

Valentine's Day Decorated Gable Box

Hello everyone and happy Monday to you all! Today I have a Darling Valentine Gable Box I decorated using beautiful taffeta, grosgrain, roses, and other beautiful supplies from  Really Reasonable Ribbon which I have listed below for you. I absolutely LOVED making this darling gift box, it was so much fun to decorate, and will be doing another one too!

On my box I started with a Christmas Gable box my mom had given me.  They came in a package of 4, so I covered up the sides that had snowflakes on them, and the front was an oval, and decided to cover it and cut a heart shape out of the design paper and place a filigree heart over it. Next I used all Really Reasonable Ribbon's beautiful mulberry roses, carnations, sweetheart blossoms, stamens, and leaves to decorate the front, and LOVE how it turned out. The beautiful strawberry brownie ribbon is absolutely DARLING and is one of my favorite Valentine ribbons, it's so sweet in person, pictures really don't do it justice at all. I made a bow with it to place on top of the taffeta pink bow, and love how sweet they look together.

It's so nice to be back in my craft room crafting and making some fun springtime projects, and getting ready to make some albums next, can't wait to work on those!

 Hello everyone and Happy New Year to you all! Today I have a super fun 1st Birthday card to share using Really Reasonable Ribbon, flowers and embellishments. Its been a while since I've made any cards, and this one is super special as I made it for our Grandson's 1st Birthday!

On my card I decided to use Really Reasonable Ribbons Delicate Stitched Satin in blue to create a bow to put behind the little tag that says Little ONE. The fox and that tag were both cut out of the design paper, as this darling paper is so sweet and I thought it was perfect for my grandson's birthday. The fox I chose is a CC die and thought it would be cute colored up along with a little cupcake with a number 1 candle. I then added some RRR rose buds and some branches and leaves to the area around the fox and cupcake. I added some glitter to the cupcake and to the top of the candle. Lastly I did add a couple of cute flower embellishments from Really Reasonable Ribbon as I thought they would be so darling on the card and give it a little glitz.

Christmas Heart Tin with Really Reasonable Ribbon

Hello everyone and Happy Monday to all! Today I'm sharing a fun little recycled heart tin that I used to hold pocket change.  I thought how fun it would be to decorate it with ribbon and flowers from Really Reasonable Ribbon, so it could be set out for Christmas this year and instead of change inside of it, maybe some wrapped candies.

It's an old See's Candy chocolate tin, and I just added some Really Reasonable Ribbon beautiful Gabrielle Lace around the sides and on the top of the heart tin. Love this beautiful lace!

For the top of the box I made the Gabrielle lace into a big bow and hot glued it to the top.  Next I took the green emerald gingham ribbon and made another bow and layered it on top of the lace, then the red checkerboard satin, and then the baker's twine,.  Next I added the flowers in white open rose, and then a red carnation, and ted and white rose buds. Lastly I added 2 of the beautiful vintage antique bronze flower charms to the top of the heart. I really enjoyed decorating this tin, as its always nice to find new things to create, and recycle.

RRR Decorated Thanksgiving Pumpkin Soap Dispenser

 Hello everyone and Happy Monday to you all! Today I have a fun and easy project to make for the holidays using Really Reasonable Ribbon Flowers, Seam Binding, Grosgrain Ribbon, and Satin Ribbons. This Pumpkin is a soap dispenser.  I bought two of them, so I figured I would decorate them up for this month for Thanksgiving.

To decorate, I started with the Tobacco Brown Seam Binding, and tied it around the lid part, and then made a big bow and tied it on. Next I tied the Orange Satin into a bow and hot glued it on. Next I made a smaller bow out of the Sunflowers Grosgrain Ribbon, and then used hot glue to glue that one on next. Lastly I added some Yellow Rose Buds, and then some Orange Rose Buds using hot glue, it's that easy! Love when projects come together easy like this, and they turn out super cute too. I will have two of these for both guest bathroom in my home .

Really Reasonable Ribbon Supplies:
Sunflowers on Kiwi Grosgrain Ribbon
Seam Binding Tobacco Brown
Satin Swirls Orange
Yellow Rose buds
Orange Rose Buds

Above is a close up so you can see that I pulled a string in the seam binding to ruche the ties on the bow so they would have the gathered look.  Now you could do that with the entire bow, and each loop, however for this project I chose not to.

Thank you so much for stopping by and hope you enjoyed my post for today!

Christmas Carol Card

Hello everyone, today I have a sweet Christmas card I designed for Really Reasonable Ribbon using some beautiful ribbon and flowers from the Really Reasonable Ribbon shop.

The Shimmer Satin Ribbon came from the October Ribbon Club Assortment, and it's one of my many favorites as it's absolutely gorgeous in person. Love how it works up into beautiful bows too! My flowers were done using the Carnations, Sweetheart Blossoms, Rose Buds, and Pretty Flori Flowers, and 35mm Green Leaves. To put my card together I used Scotch ATG refill, and thin foam tabs both from Really Reasonable Ribbon, and Graphic45 design paper and AC card stock. I did add sewing and white gel dots on the 2 layers. My card came together pretty easy, as there is no stamping on this, and the die cut was already cut and laying aside ready to be used...hehehe love that!
