Sweet Bee " I love you"

Hello everyone and happy Wednesday to you all! Today I have this darling gnome SVG I put together, and used for my post today for Really Reasonable Ribbon. I absolutely love making these darling bee gnomes, and using them on my memorydex spinner, as I get to see them all daily. Love that! So for this one here, I did use RRR Flowers, ribbon, and foam squares along with some scor-tape all will be linked below for easy finding.

Recipe for my memorydex:

the Memorydex die cut is from Amazon, and I cut it using some black card stock from papertemptress, then added some white paint dots. Next I layered using the darling bee paper from Echo Park Oh Happy day design paper. Love how cute it is. I then decided to use a stamp (i love you)and die set from Mymakersmovement, and added some dots to it. The bee gnome was already put together and ready to go, so I grabbed him to use. I did however make his antennae's and added black dew drops from The Robins Nest. Next I added some greenery and that way I could layout all my flowers for placement. I used Rose buds, sweetheart blossoms, carnations, Mini sweetheart blossoms, Open rose, and then an old aster daisy that I had in my bag of random flowers.

All my layers are popped using the foam tabs from Really Reasonable Ribbon. Love these as you can do lots of layers and they are thinner tabs. Lastly I added my ribbon bow to his hat, yes a ribbon bow on my gnome...hehehehe and then added my dew drops using hot glue.

Really Reasonable Ribbon Supplies:

foam tabs

1/4" chevron twill black

Carnations Mixed Pink

Open Roses Pale Pink

Rose buds white

Rose Buds two tone Pink

Mini sweetheart blossoms mixed pink

Sweetheart blossom mixed pink

other supplies:

memorydex die for the base and layer/amazon, white gel pen, svg file, the robins nest dew drops, stamp and die my makers movement, hot glue, echo park design paper, papertemptress card stock, greenery, wire, cricut, bee gnome svg, stickles.

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

Easter Gnomes Folio

 Hello, Ribbon Lovers!  Have you had a chance to play with the March Ribbon Club yet?  I used it to dress up this adorable Easter Gnomes Folio.  Apple Taffeta Ribbon is the perfect shade of green to go with this whimsical creation.  Pastel Vertical Stripe Ribbon makes me think of rainbows and Easter Eggs.  So it's a great accent ribbon for the corners. 

Here's a peek inside this Z-Fold Folio.  The Pastel Stripe Ribbon in the corner is seen from the cover.  I like that it does double duty this way.

TIP:  The Z-Fold design of this folio provides you with space to add a hidden pocket and tag combination and a little flap page, too.  To make the Z-Fold card front, simply score it in half down the middle, then fold the right hand side back toward the spine.  How easy is that?

When the folio is fully opened, you find a pocket filled with a tag and a couple of journal cards.  You can mat a photo on the calendar page, or write a message in code in the squares.  Wouldn't that be fun?

However you decide to use this Spring Ribbon Club Assortment, you're going to love the great patterns, textures and ribbon styles.  It's so nice to be able to pull out our spring papers and ribbons, isn't it?

Thanks for stopping by!
