Snowglobe Christmas Shaker Card

 Hello everyone and Happy Monday to you all! Today's post is a super cute Christmas Shaker Snow Globe card I made using Really Reasonable Ribbon, & Makers Movement Stamps and dies. I love the Christmas Ribbons that were in last months Ribbon club and had to use them on this card here. 

On my card I combined 3 design paper layers, 1 doily frame, and then the super cute shaker snowglobe. I added a little scenery inside the snow globe, along with the tinsel sprinkles. Next I added a snowflake embellishment to the bottom of the snow globe and all the corners on my card. The double bow was done using the gorgeous ribbons from the October Ribbon Club Assortment, aren't they so pretty!? I added gel dots in white, and then my sewing to embellish each layer.

It's Hot Chocolate Season

Welcome back to the RRR blog, everyone.  It's me, Karen, posting here today as I share a sweet card I created using a few of my favorite trims.  Two of my all-time favorite trims (among others) are Seam Binding and Baker's Twine.  Today's card incorporates a bit of both of these fabulous trims, and RRR carries over 40 colors of each.  I started with a black cardstock base and using Scor-Tape I attached a cute Christmas plaid patterned paper and a white doily to create my card base.

I ran some Black Seam Binding and Lipstick Red Seam Binding across the bottom of my card, and I also tied a sweet bow using a bit of each.  I also tucked in some Solid Black Baker's Twine and wrapped a length of Solid Red Baker's Twine around the bottom of my card.  I tucked in a bow of these two Baker's Twines near the bundles of Red Berry Bead Clusters, Double Head Stamens and glittered berries here are there.  I also tucked in a Green Mulberry Leaf near some of the berries.

The cupcake, coffee mug with steam, candy sticks and sentiment were stamped and cut using some of my favorite, and quite darling, Paper Sweeties products.  I used lots and lots of Scor-Tape to securely attached everything to my card so that it will stay put.  Scor-Tape is an amazing adhesive that really stands the test of time, and holds your keepsakes together securely.

Thanks again for stopping by to take a peek at my SWEET card.  I do hope you'll stop by Really Reasonable Ribbon to check out all their awesome products.  There's SO much more than the hundreds of ribbons, laces, twines and trims in this FAB store.  There's also Mulberry Flowers, Stamens, all sorts of Embellishments, Mulberry Leaves, and....check it out.  You'll love everything you find in this super sweet store.

Have a blessed day,
Karen

Birdcage Greeting Card

 Hey there friends and crafty peeps! Ginny here with a greeting card created with some pretty trims and flowers from my favorite RRR.


I've added a die cut frame with a fancy cut out center in place of my usual printed focal image.

The frame is added to layers of pretty patterned papers that have been distressed for added texture.

Spacers between the layers for loads of depth.

I've brought in so many pretty flowers from WOC to create this arrangement filled in with die cut foliage and loopy twine bows.

A second arrangement is added here for balance. 


Wishing everyone a happy and productive day : ) G

Woodland Creature Cards by Cherry Nelson

 Hellllllllllo RRR peeps!  Cherry here on the blog today to share a woodland theme holiday greeting with you.  If there are cute animals involved, I am always down for creating with them.  We all could use some cuteness in the world right about now.  I gathered up my supplies and created a more traditional Nordic color scheme with my hedgehog shaker, and the other card is in more masculine forest greens and browns.  I love this sweet owl and the sentiment "tis the season to be J'owly" ...also love me a good pun. 


I used lots of fun flowers..some from Really Reasonable Ribbon and some I created using Foamirian and stamens from the store.  I used diecuts in varying size frames to create a shadow effect on both cards.  I love the dimension it adds to my cards.   Well that is it for me.  Please scroll down for a full supply list.





As always thanks for stopping by!  Stay healthy and creative friends. 

XOXO, Cherry

Gingerbread Latte Easel Card

 

Hello everyone, and Happy Thursday to you all! Today I have a super fun easel card I made for Really Reasonable Ribbon.  It's been a while since I've done one of these types of cards, and I thought it would be  so cute using the gingerbread boy, latte cup, flowers, ribbon, and design paper to match.


My card measures 6" x  6" closed. I used the super cute stamps and dies from Makers Movement, and I love this little gingerbread guy, he is on a scenery I did for the Latte cup. I used flower soft for the snow, and added the trees. The cup was cut using the snowflake design paper. For my bows I used the satin with grosgrain edge ribbon, and then added my 25mm cottage roses, and then the rose buds in white and blue.

Really Reasonable Ribbon Supplies Used:

other supplies
My Makers Movement dies and stamps, warm wishes stamp and die, A latte Love, 
peppermint twists sprinkles 
pebbles design paper
flower soft
Copics
Stickles , white gel pen, sewing machine, hot glue gun
I hope you enjoyed my fun card today, as I enjoyed making it to share. Hugs to all!

Autumn Hued Ribbon and Flowers

 



Kathy Clement for Really Reasonable Ribbon

Hello, Ribbon Lovers!  The colors of fall are rich, warm and luxurious.  So is this gorgeous Cappuccino Satin Ribbon with a Grosgrain Edge from Really Reasonable Ribbon.  It's the perfect ribbon choice for autumn hued projects like this November Desk Calendar.

If you struggle with making beautiful bows, I highly recommend giving Satin with a Grosgrain Edge Ribbon a try!  It is soft and supple, so it ties very easily.  And it comes in just about every shade you could ever want or need.  It's one of my favorites.  Especially when it is paired up with Natural Burlap String and Mixed Earth Tone Cottage Roses!  

TIP:  You can add depth and detail to your Mixed Earth Tone Cottage Roses by brushing the edges lightly with Gathered Twigs Distress Ink.  It softens the colors and helps them blend better with these autumn hued papers.


This 6x6 easel card has a hidden pocket panel.




It's the perfect spot to tuck in a little photo folio where you can capture fall memories and snapshots.


And if one pocket is good, then two pockets is even better!  The stopper on this easel card is actually a pocket.  I've filled it up with tri-fold folios that are sized perfectly for wallet sized photos.  And I've added in some journal cards, too.

It's hard to believe that it's almost November!  Time to break out the Thanksgiving decorations and create a warm and cozy atmosphere inside our homes.  

Wishing you a joyful and creative day!
