Dreams

Hi crafty friends.  Bonnie here today with a colorful card featuring a pretty bow made using Delicate Stitched Satin Ribbon along with some lovely Embellishments all from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

We closing in on the end of summer (already!!) and I wanted to make one more card with some bright summer colors.  The digital papers and sentiment on this card are from the new Magnolia Dreams collection from Graciellie Design and the dies are some of my favorites from Cheery Lynn Designs.

I have a strip of 5/8" Shocking Pink Delicate Stitched Satin Ribbon topped with 3/8" Turquoise Quatrefoil Print Satin Ribbon running across the upper third of the card and that is topped with the sentiment panel.  Rather than attach the ribbon on the back of the panel, I simply dove-tailed the ends.

My flowers were created with the Floral Bouqet kit from Cheery Lynn Designs and the centers are adorned with 10mm Hot Pink Flat Back Resin Beads and Silver Gear Charms topped with a Heart Shaped Dotted Wave Rhinestone.

My bow was made on my Bow-it-All V3.0 Tool using Turquoise and Shocking Pink Delicate Stitched Satin Ribbon.  The center was finished off with a Heart Shaped Flat Back Pearl Bead.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  For more information on the other products used on my card, please visit my Make Time to Craft Blog.

Find Joy Greeting Card

Hey there Peeps! Just dropping in with a greeting card so full of homespun country charm. 

 Yellow is not always my go to color.....but I'm quite please with it this time paired with warm woodsy brown.

 

Since it's a countrified card, I'm adding burlap flowers and twine for a natural texture. Of course I added other more stylized flowers too to complete the arrangement.

This chevron ribbon makes the most perfect bow and topped off with the fancy brad, it's just that much more awesome.

I always like the inside of my cards to be finished to coordinate with the outside.

If one die cut doily is good......then two must be better right? Last but not least a little clip and this card is ready to make someones day!

Really Reasonable Ribbon~ Champagne Chevron Stripe on Twill, Ivory Burlap String.

Okay that's all for me. Wishing everyone a happy and productive day : ) G

Friendship Begins.......

Welcome by today, everyone!  It's Karen Letchworth posting today with a fun card I created using some Really Reasonable Ribbon favorites of mine.  One reason why I love Really Reasonable Ribbon SO much is because I know that I can always find the perfect color ribbons, trims, flowers, and more to adorn ANYTHING I'm working on.  This card was no exception.   Just look at all these fun goodies!

I used a hot pink card stock on my card base and covered it with one patterned paper using Scor-Tape.  I added a journalling card, and I stamped my sentiment on that.  Next, I ran a width of Cream Seam Binding across my card, and then tied a bow with the Cream Seam Binding and some Summer Rose Seam Binding. 

The next thing I did was to add some lovely Mulberry Flowers including a Pink Cottage Rose and two Teal Blue Cosmo Daisies from the Mixed Aqua/Blues Cosmos Daisies Collection.  The  White Cosmo Daisy on my bow is also from this same collection.  Finally, I added two White Flatback Pearls to accent my card.

We would absolutely love to have you play along in our CURRENT CHALLENGE; and don't forget to stop back here often for lots of great inspiration.  The Really Reasonable Ribbon store is filled with the most AMAZING products, so why not do some window shopping and treat yourself to something new?  There are so many fabulous products that I know you will love.

Have a great week,

Karen

Recipe for Happiness Layout

Hello ribbon lovers!  So excited to be sharing a shabby chic layout using Really Reasonable Ribbon products. 

I added a little shimmer and applied glitter glue to the Silky Crush Rose Ribbon and Theresa White Crochet Lace, along with a White Cottage Rose.

Next I added just a small amount of Silver Metallic Bakers Twine to the die cut.

Next I added a few recipes, buttons and extra watercolor die cuts o the layout.

I hope you enjoyed an easy an fun layout. Wishing you a creative day, dear friends.

Hello

{judy} Good morning! I was recently asked about pattern mixing with designer papers, so today I am sharing this sweet little, mailable card, showing four different patterns. Paper companies make it so easy to mix and match, using papers from the same paper pack. These are from The {Stamps} of Life, as is my sentiment stamp. There are elements of each of the same shades of colors, which makes for a fun, eye-catching card.

 
I "tied" it all together with some of my favorite Cotton Candy Baker's Twine, but still kept it flat for easy mailing! As always, I use Scor-Tape to hold my layers together. That's it for me today! Be sure to come play along in our "Anything Goes" Challenge! Thanks for stopping by!
