* Create a new project using the posted theme. A layout, card, ATC, home decor item, hair bow, or anything you can think of provided it fits the weekly theme.

* You may enter up to 6 projects, but you're asked to provide newly designed projects. No back-linking please.

* All projects must also include some sort of ribbon, lace or trim.
* A maximum of 6 entries per person per challenge please.

* Post your project on your blog or an online gallery (using code RRR153) and link it here with the Inlinkz tool below. Please provide a direct link to your post, not an entire blog.

* You have until November 30th at 11:59 PM Eastern time to enter your projects. Thanks so much for playing and good luck.

 

 PLEASE consider turning off your word verification.

It would be a great help to us if you would consider turning off your word verification if it's active on your blog. To do this is really easy and all you need to do is go to Customize > Settings > Comments > then scroll down to where it says comment moderation and select always (this won't stop anybody leaving you a comment but they won't show on your blog until you approve them). Then scroll down to show word verification for comments? and select No.

We love to visit your blogs and leave comments on all the terrific entries, but the word verification really slows us down. :o)

Getting Scrappy with Steampunk Debutante

Hello, Ribbon Lovers!  It's Kathy here with a great way to use your scraps. Since I clean my work table at the end of each project, I had developed the habit of putting my paper scraps into a Sterlite cart.  Where they were promptly forgotten!  Now,   instead of tossing them into the "Land that Time (and Kathy) forgot", I use them to make a little card or tag before I clean up my desk.  That's how this lovely little Steampunk Debutante Art Tag came into being.

I love the way this Peacock Alley Seam binding picks up on the blues in the paper and adds a punch of vibrant color to the tag.  Both this color and its kissing cousin, Noble Peacock, look amazing with the Graphic 45 Steampunk Debutante papers.

It's amazing what you can make with scraps, isn't it?

Thanks for stopping by!
Cheerio,
kathy

Upcycled Christmas Frame with Wire Edge Ribbon

Hi friends! Today I'm sharing a easy project that anyone can make to brighten up your wall décor this holiday season.  I took an old frame that wasn't being used and painted it red, then simply added some May Arts Wired Edge Ribbon made into a puffy bow to the top corner. This is a super easy craft to make and has a really nice presence. That wired edge ribbon is so fun to work with!

Then I decorated the opposite bottom corner with a couple of WOC White Spiral Stamens, 2 WOC White Bead Berry Spray Clusters, 1 Red Bead Berry Spray Cluster and a few Ivory Roses.
Here's a close up of the corner....

I hope you've been inspired to try using wired edge ribbon in some creative way! Thanks so much for stopping by today! Happy crafting!

Joyeux Noel

 Good morning RRR peeps!  Cherry here today to share a seasonal card for the holidays.  A classic combination of golds, whites, and creams.  I used Old Gold Shimmer Satin Ribbon to create my loopy bow.  I tucked in some pinecones and mini acorns that I collected outside.

 I also decorated the inside a bit using papers and some pretty Cross Hatch on Gold Satin Ribbon.  I adhered it easy peasy by using some Scor-Tape.  I love using it, especially for slimmer ribbons.

 Lots of pretty layers and dimension using Tombow 3d tabs. 

 I used a vintage Nativity ornament as my focal point and several gorgeous poinsettias to frame it.

                                               As always enjoy! Hugs, Cherry

Christmas Wishes

 Hello everyone, Cheryl here today with a Christmas card designed for Really Reasonable Ribbon using the Beautiful Satin with Metallic edge assortment. I love this time of year, prepping for Christmas, getting lots of cards done, and pretty soon I will start decorating my home :) cant wait!

On my card I used the White Satin with Metallic edge from this assortment here, to create my big bow. My bow was done in 2 different pieces and then hot glued to each other on my card. I did add a RRR embellishment its the 12mm flatbacked round acrylic rhinestone.

The flowers and branches were created using Cheery Lynn dies, and I did add some vintage pearls to the centers. This paper is absolutely beautiful and makes for a beautiful Christmas card. My sentiment is from The Project Bin called Luke 2!

The top 2 layers of my card are popped up using Really Reasonable Ribbons Foam Tabs.

I hope you enjoyed my card for today! Thank you for stopping by, and have a lovely day!
hugs to all,
Cheryl
