Easter Bunny Ornaments

Hello crafty friends and Happy Friday to you all! Today I'm sharing these darling chipboard bunnies I decorated using Really Reasonable Ribbon , Seam Binding and flowers all from the Really Reasonable Ribbon shop. The bunnies came from the dollar store and I even bought chicks and carrots too. 

I decorated 14 bunnies for my Easter Tree using some Echo Park Design papers and then sanded the edges, and distressed them using distress inks. Next I hot glued on bows I created using Really Reasonable Ribbons Delicate stitched Pink ribbon, LOVE this ribbon as it holds form and easy to create. The rose buds I hot glued on, and I used the white sweetheart blossoms, and some seam binding I ruched up as well. All hot glued on. Love how these turned out and can't wait to do my tree when done with all the chipboard ornaments.


Thank you so very much for looking and have a lovely day!
hugs to all, Cheryl

I'm Not Irish, but Kiss Me Anyway Greeting Card

Today I am sharing a fun St. Patrick's Day greeting card.  I just love a fun sarcastic sentiment, don't you?  I embellished the card with some pretty ribbons and flowers from Really Reasonable Ribbon

I created a 5-1/2″ square card with loads of layers. My digital sentiment from Bonnie Garby Designs is my main focal point.  I ran a piece of forest Satin with Grosgrain Edge Ribbon across the middle of the card.  I topped my card off with a pretty bi-color double loop bow and below the sentiment I have added some pretty white Cottage Roses and 15 and 20mm Open Roses.

The sentiment on the front of my card is from my St. Patrick's Day 3 Digi Stamp Bundle. The interior Sentiment is from the Old Irish Blessings for the Inside Digital Stamp Bundle. The background was created with the Basketweave on Point Overlay SVG Bundle. All my designs can be found on my Bonnie Garby Designs Etsy shop.


Our sister company 'Bonnie Garby Designs' is offering a large variety of digital sentiment stamps and svg files.  Below are the digital stamp bundles I used on my card today.

When I Count My Blessings

 Hello and Happy Wednesday!

Misty @Mommyofkidz here today sharing a super fun card 

that is perfect for St. Patricks Day...

(Which is coming SOON!)

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Silky Crush ribbons in ALL colors
 and I thought about creating my rainbow with a variety of them. 
 However, I am also a hoarder of pretty things...and want to save the ribbons that I have 
and use them sparingly.  They are like GOLD to me! Ha Ha!! 
Instead, I used a rainbow printed cardstock from Pretty Little studio

 for the rainbow, and I only had to part with a 2 foot length of my 

Silky Crush Parrot Green Ribbon

Isn't that the prettiest green you've ever seen!!?? 
I absolutely love it, and thought it would be perfect for ting this card together. 


The slimline design allowed me to add 3 shamrocks to the front of my card.  I did this with the thought of turning them into shakers, but changed my mind.  The bright colors and fluffy bow were just enough "eye candy" to make the impact that I was hoping for! 
Sometimes we don't need a lot...a simple handmade card tied together 
with just ONE ribbon
can make a HUGE impact to someone's day! 
Head on over to Really Reasonable Ribbon and find the 
PERFECT ribbon for your next card!

Carrot Ornament/ Really Reasonable Ribbon

 

Hello everyone and happy Monday to you all! Cheryl here today with a fun little Carrot ornament I decorated using Really Reasonable Ribbons Seam Binding. 

So I started with these carrot chipboard shaped ornaments that I bought at the dollar store, and knew instantly what I wanted to do with them. I came home and covered all 10 with design paper, and then sanded the edges and distressed with an orange ink, and vintage photo ink. Next I picked out my seam binding and started ruching it up, and cutting it into pieces, and then hot glued it to the top of the carrot for the greenery part I chose the Bay Leaf color. I then used some of RRR twine for the bow, and the little embellishment for the center. Love how these turned out and can't wait to finish them all for my tree for Easter.

Thank you so very much for stopping by and have a lovely day! Hugs to all, Cheryl

Hello Valentine

Hi friends!  It's your friend Karen here today.  Valentine's Day is fast approaching, and I've got a few special cards ready for some loved ones.  It's always a fun occasion to send little love notes to tell others how much you love and care about them.  Really Reasonable Ribbon always has the perfect ribbons, trims and twines to accent every card with the perfect colors, widths, textures and designs.  This card is pure love.
I used black cardstock layered with white cardstock and then a layer of pink gingham patterned paper; and each one was cut using a Rectangle Pierced Die Set.  I used a FUN new Fringe Heart Dies from Pretty Pink Posh to create the heart.  Rather than using the Fringe Heart Dies to cut from just paper, I used them to cut through various ribbons/trims including Rose Petal Seam Binding (bottom), Medium Pink Gingham Ribbon (middle) and 1.5" Pink Netting (top).  I tied a length of Solid Black Baker's Twine around the middle of the heart.
I cut a second heart using more of the pretty Medium Pink Gingham Ribbon.  I also added some 11mm White Heart Shaped Flatback Embellishments.  It's FUN using ribbons when cutting with die-cuts; and Really Reasonable Ribbon truly is the number ONE place to find ribbons, trims, twines, laces and SO many other wonderful goodies to use in crafting and card-making.  I added a bit more of the 1.5" Pink Netting and a length of Pink & Cream Striped Grosgrain Ribbon underneath the decorative heart.
The darling sentiment is from Bonnie Garby Designs from the Be My Valentine 2 Stamp Set.  Everything is held securely in place with a fabulous Adhesive called Scor-Tape.  This Adhesive is awesome because it works so well, and it comes in various widths to accommodate each trim or paper based on the size needed.  I think I covered everything I used; but if not, feel free to ask me any questions you might have.  Really Reasonable Ribbon carries so many great trims and products to help you create lovely cards and art projects.
Thanks so much for stopping by to visit us.  We hope that you'll check out the Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog often for lots of great inspiration, and of course, for our monthly Blog Hops starting on the 13th of each month.  Check out Really Reasonable Ribbon and Bonnie Garby Designs; and be sure to treat yourself, friends.  You deserve it, and you'll LOVE it.  Happy Valentine's Day to you all.

Blessings,

Valentines Candy Jar with RRR


Hello Crafty friends and Happy Thursday to you all! Cheryl here today with a fun Valentines Candy jar I decorated using the beautiful Ribbons from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

So for my jar I picked a couple of these up from Walmart to use on my hutch in my kitchen, and thought these would be perfect to use really reasonable ribbon on. For my ribbon choices I chose the delicate stitched satin in red, and then I used the satin Swiss dots in black-and-white. Next I hot glued the Swiss around the bottom of the lid, and made a bow for the top. I also used the Delicate Stitched for a bow as well. Lastly I added a puffy heart from my stash and hot glued another heart on top.

Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed my post for today! Hugs to all, Cheryl

Today I am sharing another girlie 'Galentine's Day' card.  You know I love flowery girly cards, and they are just perfect for a friend, right?!

I embellished the card with some pretty ribbons and flowers from Really Reasonable Ribbon

I created a 4-3/4″ x 6-1/2″ card with loads of layers. My digital sentiment from Bonnie Garby Designs is my main focal point.  I ran a piece of hot pink Diamond Satin Ribbon across the middle of the card topped with Mixed Pink Diamond Print Grosgrain Ribbon across the center of the card.  I topped it off with a pretty bi-color double loop bow and below the sentiment I have added some pretty 15 and 20mm 2-Tone White with Baby Pink Center Open Roses.

The sentiment on the front of my card is from my Be My Valentine 2 Digi Stamp Bundle. The interior Sentiment is from the Valentine Sentiments for Friends for the Inside Digital Stamp Bundle. The background was created with the Layered Hearts in Square on Point Overlay SVG Bundle. All my designs can be found on my Bonnie Garby Designs Etsy shop.
