Welcome Autumn

 Welcome by again today, everyone.  Today is one of my posting dates for Really Reasonable Ribbon and I always enjoy making and sharing cards using their wonderful products.  No matter what stamps and die-cuts you enjoy, you're always sure to find the perfect embellishments for every card and project at Really Reasonable Ribbon.  This will help to make all your projects POP with excitement.

I started with black cardstock combined and layered with some patterned papers and stickers from my stash.  Once I attached all the layers of paper using pieces of Scor-Tape to secure them, I added some washi tape and vintage scotch tape.  Next, I ran a length of Brown & White Gingham Ribbon across my card underneath the patterned papers so that it peeks out just a bit.

I attached several Green, Ivory and Oatmeal Double Head Stamens and then I tied a bow with the Brown & White Gingham Ribbon.  That's all topped with a lovely Coral Open Rose.  I just LOVE all the great products from Really Reasonable Ribbon that help gives cards more texture, color and pizzazz.

The gorgeous sentiment I used is from Bonnie Garby Designs, and it can be found in their Autumn Leaves Stamp Set.  I do hope that you'll visit the Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog for lots of great inspiration and then check out Really Reasonable Ribbon for your Adhesives, Flowers, Ribbons and more.  And don't forget about the wonderful Bonnie Garby Designs where you can find awesome sentiments.  Happy crafting, everyone.

Blessings,

Karen

Pink Autumn Tea Party in a Box

 Hello, Ribbon Lovers!  Fall is finally here!  My favorite season of the year!  So I'm celebrating today with a vintage style Pink Autumn Tea Party in a Box card.  Dressed up with Brown and Cream Tartan Plaid Ribbon and Pumpkin Baker's Twine, it is filled with all the gorgeous colors and textures of fall.  I'm thinking asters and pumpkins, crunchy leaves and steaming mugs of Pumpkin Spice Tea!

I tucked a mini folio into the top of this fall beauty.  Then I created a sweet box pocket to hold a variety of tags and goodies you  might want to have at a tea party for one.

Brown and Cream Tartan Plaid Ribbon looks great on top of the cute die cut luggage tag, especially when tied up with a Pink and Brown Twist Baker's Twine Bow.  Do you ever use ribbon inside your cards?  It's one of my favorite tricks to add texture and interest to a card interior. 

I hope you are enjoying some glorious fall weather and lots of Pumpkin Spice tea whereever you are.

Thanks for stopping by!

Cheerio,

kathy

Halloween Treat Basket Box

 

Hello crafty friends, and Happy Monday to you all! Today's Treat Basket Box post was designed for Really Reasonable Ribbon using the gorgeous satin ribbons from the Reasonable Ribbon shop.

I made 2 of these darling Halloween Treat Basket boxes for my grandkids, and will be doing another one soon. I will have a video on how I constructed my basket box up soon on my YouTube Channel here. So if you would like to see how to make the basket part and see how I Decorated it you can. 

I used Really Reasonable Ribbon on these in Checkerboard satin Ribbon ,
then I used the green Mini Swiss dots for the other basket I also used some Scor-tape, and foam tabs as well. The little Halloween images are from KaDoodle Bug and are SVG files. I did use dies to create may flowers and then straws as well. Super fun project to create.

Thank you so very much for stopping by and have a lovely day!

hugs to all, Cheryl

I Love Fall Most of All

I'm so glad you're here today, and I thank you for your visit.  It always fun making cards using ribbons, trims, and flowers. However, it's always extra fun when you can combine all that with another fab company for the sentiment. The card I'm sharing today does just that; as it features some of the FABULOUS products from Really Reasonable Ribbon combined with a sentiment from Bonnie Garby Designs.

This card started with a piece of ivory cardstock and I layered it with a piece of patterned paper from my stash.  I also cut the scalloped die-cut border using another patterned paper scrap.  I run a length of the Black & White Bold Check Ribbon down the left side of this card and tied a pretty bow with it.  At the bottom of the card, I added a Faux Pearl Accent and a Peach Open Rose.

The sentiment is from Bonnie Garby Designs and can be found in the Thanksgiving Sentiments Bundle.  I rubbed the sentiment with oxide inks for some color.  Underneath that pretty bow, I tucked several Double Head Stamens and on top of that pretty bow, I attached a lovely Magnolia Flower.  I also ran the bottom half of this card through the Cuttlebug with a Lumber Embossing Folder.

Thanks again for stopping by.  It's always a treat to have you visit.  I hope you will check out Really Reasonable Ribbon and Bonnie Garby Designs.  Whatever you're doing, I hope you're having fun and finding time to be creative.

Blessings,

Karen

Trick or Treat shaker page

Hello crafty friends and happy Tuesday to you all. Todays post is a Shaker page and the front of my Album. Almost done with this, and can't wait to share it all. Anyways this page was created for Really Reasonable Ribbon using the gorgeous ribbons and then flowers from the RRR Store.

So for my page I chose the Luna paper collection and then a huge doily die. I also used the darling shaker gum ball machine and added a witches hat to it. The Gum ball machine is a die cut I purchased from Scrap diva designs. you can save 10% by using my name CHERYLWALKER at checkout. Love how it turned out. The ribbon I used is the beautiful Black bold check ribbon found here. I did make bows for both the tag and machine, and then added some little flowers. The shaker pieces are all different ones mixed up together for the inside. I used the darling little I want candy sticker, and popped it up using the foam tabs, I also used some foam tabs to pop my pieces up.  Love this page, and can't wait to add a photo.

The cover of my book I thought I would share a sneak peek here as I used tons of Really Reasonable Ribbon flowers, they can all be found here. I used open roses, sweetheart blossoms, and then some beautiful pink ribbon called Bold Satin with grosgrain edge pearl pink 5/8' I also added some stickers, and die cut pieces to the front belly band. 

Thank you so very much for stopping by and have a lovely day!

Hugs to all,

Cheryl

 

Fabulous Fall Critters Easel Card

Hello, Ribbon Lovers!  It still feels like summer here in North Carolina, but the calendar tells me that fall will soon be here.  Time to break out those pretty fall ribbons (my favorite) and festive fall papers, my friends!  This fabulous fall critters easel card features one of my all time favorites: Copper and Cream Plaid Ribbon.  Its rich hues really work for fall projects. Pumpkin Baker's Twine added extra texture to my ribbon clusters, too.  It's the perfect shade for autumn. 

I've paired this pretty ribbon up with some 35mm Mixed Earth Tone Trellis Roses  35mm green leaves  and Mixed Earth Tone Chrysanthemums and Sweetheart Blossoms from the RRR shop. 

TIP: Did you know  you can alter your mulberry flowers and leaves with mists, paints, sprays and stains?  It's so easy to brush Distress Stain over these grey roses so that they match your papers.  And you can create fall foliage just by tapping Distress Paint over the surface of the leaves.  Try it yourself, and see  how easy it is to create a custom look for your fall cards.    

Here's a peek at the inside of this sweet card.  I don't know about  you, but I love to add pockets to my cards so that I can tuck in little surprises or treats.  

It's Pumpkin Spice season, y'all!  Hope you are enjoying beautiful fall weather, wherever this post finds you.

Cheerio,

kathy

Gothic Owl Halloween Greeting Card

 Hey there friends and crafty peeps! Ginny here to share a goth style greeting card created with a printable from my shop and beautifully coordinating trims from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

Seems like years ago purple used to be considered a non traditional Halloween color but I think it has really come into it's own. I created this card with a tag from the Mystical  Gothic Halloween Tags printable from my shop.  The color palate of the tag inspired the trims and flowers. 

~Really Reasonable Ribbon~  Stitched Satin Delphinium,  Ivory Burlap String,  Double Head Stamens

Wishing everyone a happy and productive day : )
