Love, Hope and Joy

Christmas has come and gone, and a new year has begun.  It's hard to believe how quickly it comes and how quickly it all passes us by again.  We hurry, we stress, we get all our gifts and wrap them, bake our cookies, trim the tree, and....oh my!  It's always so hectic.  And then we find ourselves right here in the start of a New Year.  All of us at Really Reasonable Ribbon hope that your Christmas was happy and blessed.  Now, let's all try to focus on Love, Hope and Joy - in our own lives and in how we treat others.

Any time you want to make a CUTE card, you'll always find the perfect trims, Adhesives, Mulberry Flowers, Embellishments and more at Really Reasonable Ribbon.  These awesome products will always match any patterned papers or designs you've already got on hand.  This card was created with some patterned papers from Crate Paper, and I knew RRR had the perfect trims, as always.  I ran a length of 1/2" Red Wrinkle Ribbon down the middle of my card and tied a bow with that and some Bay Leaf Seam Binding.  I topped that with some rusty jingle bells tied tightly with a length of Natural Burlap String.

Everything is held securely in place using strips of Scor-Tape; which is a FANTASTIC Adhesive that holds everything right where it belongs.   At the bottom of my card, I added a Maya Road canvas tag that's topped with a sticker and a holly/ivy stamped and die-cut image from Paper Sweeties.  The sentiment is from SSS.  It's tied with a length of (another favorite of mine) Solid Ivory Baker's Twine.  Honestly, I can't get enough of all the fabulous trims and goodies from Really Reasonable Ribbon.  I know you'll LOVE them, too.  Thanks for stopping by, and happy crafting.

Blessings,

Karen
