More Gingerbread House Cards

Hey friends and happy Monday to you! I hope you had a marvelous weekend! Linsey here today! I finished the rest of my special gingerbread house cards over the weekend, so I thought I'd go ahead and share them with you! They are so much fun to make because I can create one-of-a-kind houses--each and every one is unique and different and I love to use different ribbons and accents to decorate the houses too! So here are few that I have designed using all sorts of pretty things from RRR!

🎅

The first house showcases beautiful Emerald Checkerboard Satin Ribbon. The smaller bows have White Flat Back Pearls added to the centers of them. 

The next house features gorgeous Double-faced Satin in Hot Pink. This ribbon is so luxurious, it doesn't need anything else to accompany it. That bow says it all, don't ya think? ;) 

This third house might be my favorite, which is why I saved it for last It features 3/8" Crosshatch on Red Satin Ribbon. The centers of each bow has an 11mm Silver Glitter Stardust Heart Shaped Rhinestone and White Flat Back Pearls accent the centers of the lollipops and the red poinsettia flower. 

So, which one is your favorite? 

I hope you enjoyed this festive post today and I wish you happy holiday crafting! 

Silver & Gold Gingerbread House Card

Hello friends and happy Monday to you! I hope you had a lovely weekend and to start of the week, I have a super sweet and special holiday card to show you! I just received my new Gingerbread House Die set from Anna Griffin and let me tell you, it is so much fun! Almost as much fun as making a real gingerbread house for the holidays, but without all the mixing, baking and dishes to clean up...just lots of little pieces of paper scraps)😊

And what goes perfect with this silver and gold gingerbread house? The fabulous Silver and Gold Mix November Ribbon Club Assortment, but of course! It sparkles, it shines and it's a match made in heaven with my little gingerbread house easel card! 💖 it! I made a big double bow for the chimney using 2 of the beautiful ribbons from this assortment; Diamond Satin Old Gold and Holiday Dots and Gold Ovals on White Satin Ribbon. I added a Silver Glitter Stardust Heart Shaped Rhinestone to the center of the double bow.

For the decorations on the front of the house, I used 3D foam sheets, then added gold glitter foil to them. I made 2 small bows using 3/8" Satin with Silver Metallic Edge White and added a rhinestone heart to each center, then I placed them atop each gold lollipop.

What a shimmery, glittery good time this festive easel card was to put together! I hope you like it!

And that's all for me today! Thanks so much for stopping by and letting me share a bit of holiday inspiration with you! Until next time, happy crafting! 

Christmas Magic Book Box & Tag Set

Hi friends! Well, Christmas is just about upon us and I'm feeling very merry these days! I'm so happy to be able to share with you a project that I enjoyed making so much and it is brimming to the top with Christmas cheer! Linsey here today--I invite you to come along and see all the magic and sweetness this holiday home décor book box holds!

 The front cover of my book box is loaded with Red and Ivory Aster Daisy Stems, WOC White Magnolias and White Bead Berry Spray Clusters for sparkle and pizazz! The 5/8" Red Taffeta Ribbon adds decadence and charm to the piece. Some Natural Burlap String tied into a bow and to the buttons lends a bit vintage goodness to the box and ties in beautifully with these darling vintage-style papers to complete the look. I added gold foils around all the edges and a vintage metal keyhole and key, as well as a metal clothespin inscribed with the word "timeless", which I believe is one of the words that describes the true meaning of Christmas.

And now for a look inside. This is the inside of the front cover and it has pocket and tag for writing the title and year. More red taffeta and daisy asters were added because I love them so much! 

Lots of tag and pockets for journaling fit inside the book box. Much more could be added as well since there is so much space!

Along the inside base of the box, Debra Natural Crochet Lace trim was added. I think it's a perfect touch of softness for this sweet theme. Arianna Natural Crochet Lace trim was added to a few of the tags as well. 

I'm so happy with the results of my book box, I added it to a table amongst my holiday home décor this year! After the holidays, it will serve as a cherished keepsake for years to come! 

I hope you've enjoyed my project today! I wish you and yours a very happy and merry holiday season! Whatever you do, be blessed!! Until next time, happy crafting--and happy new year, too!! 

Merry & Bright Holiday House

Hi RRR friends! I'm excited to share my latest altered project for the holidays, this sweet little home décor piece that I hope you'll enjoy too! I call it my merry and bright holiday house! Come along and see how ribbons and flowers make everything even more merry and bright!

Different holiday patterned papers was adhered down first, then lots of stickers, chipboard and die cuts were added to each little "room". Some pieces were popped with dimensional foam for a 3D effect. Here's a closer peek inside....

Red Aster Daisy Stems add a touch of realistic beauty to the festive holiday scene. They really elevate a project to the next level. 

In my humble opinion, the big bow tied to the top truly makes this piece Without it, it simply wouldn't be as charming or magical. The Delicate Stitched Red Satin Ribbon makes for a very pretty and special bow. I also tied a double bow on the button using Natural Burlap String.

And that's all for me today! Thanks so much for stopping by and allowing me to share my merry and bright holiday house with you! I hope you've been inspired to create something pretty with ribbon for the holidays too!! Until next time, happy holidays and happy crafting!! 

Puppy Love By Jenn Cochran

Happy Thanksgiving to all the American friend and followers of RRR.  Hope all the rest of you are having an extra special day too!!!   

I have switched gears and have started my Christmas cards.  Today I have a simple holiday card featuring one of my favorite RRR ribbons, Wired Woven Chevron Ribbon Black/White.  This ribbon is so much fun to work with, especially if you use the Zutter Bow It All. It is sold at the RRR storefront and is a must have if you love ribbon as much as I do!  I have to be honest it makes bow making a cinch!

Thanks so much for joining me today.  Stay safe and enjoy your day!
