Sweet Fox Valentine Candy Pocket

Hello everyone and Happy Friday to you all! Today I have these darling Candy Fox Heart Pockets I made using all heart shape die cuts, and Really Reasonable Ribbon, and embellishments.  I made 12 of these to give at our Doll Club Meeting for February, for a Valentine's Day exchange. I thought they would be cute and fun to give to the ladies. I really enjoyed making these, and thought next time I will have to try to make some Kitty Cats maybe, they would be super cute too!

To start with I cut out 24 large hearts, remember they are pouches to hold a candy, so the back is the same as the front. I then glued the edges together to create 12. Next I took a smaller heart and cut 12 white for the fox's face, and cut it in half, and then cut a little off of it, and glued it down to the top. I thought, wouldn't it be darling to have the eyes heart shaped as well, so I used Really Reasonable Ribbon's Heart Shaped Pearls, and then added the black to the centers. Now if you have those black pearls really small, you can use those, but I had the viva pen, and used it. The tip isn't working so well on it, so the dots don't come out as great as they used to, but it worked., Next I used Really Reasonable Ribbon's White 8mm pearl, and colored it black for the nose. The ears I used 2 different sizes of hearts, and then made 2 different bows and added a flower to the center. Love making these darling foxes, they were so fun. Next I am going to try to make some kitty cats, I think they would be so darling too!

Really Reasonable Ribbon Supplies used:
8mm flat backed Pearl
11mm white pearl bead heart shape
10mm Resin flower
Ribbon Club assortment for the bows
Delicate Stitched Ribbon
Scotch Advanced Tape Refill
Saved Wire from all the Mulberry flowers

Other Supplies:

Let it Snow Winter Card

Hello everyone and Happy Monday to you all! Today I have a sweet little snowman card I made using the beautiful ribbons from Really Reasonable Ribbon, and also some of the darling embellishments and rose buds on my card for today.

Of course Christmas is my favorite time of year, however it takes me a while to get into the crafting mode on this, so I do like to try to start early, as by October I will have huge messes in the craft room with all Christmas goodies and paper stacks and stuff all over, and anyway I'm sure I'm not the only one who does this...hehehehe.  So for my card I did use this darling paper.  It has sweet snowman on it, and I thought it would go perfectly with this sweet stamp set from JustRite Papercrafts. I love how Really Reasonable Ribbon matches perfectly with all sorts of designs, and both the Shimmer Satin Red and Satin Swiss Dots Pearl Pink go with this collection to make my double bows.

All layers were done using the ATG refill tape, and then I added sewing using my sewing machine. Next I also used the Foam Tabs to pop and give a 3-D look to the layers after they were put together.

For my poinsettias, which were cut using JustRite dies, I added some of Really Reasonable Ribbons 8mm and 10mm white flat backed pearls to the centers. Each poinsettia was brushed using  perfect pearl to give a little glitz to the flowers. Next I added in some of the RRR Rose Buds in a white , they look so pretty, love these!

Resin Flowers were added to the corners, and these little flowers are so sweet and perfect for cards, and centers of flowers, also for decorating up the corners of your card like I did here.

Really Reasonable Ribbon:
Satin Swiss Dots Pearl Pink
Shimmer Satin Ribbon for the Red
Scotch ATG Refill Tape to put together layers
Foam Tabs
Rose Buds
white flat backed pearls
Resin Flowers

The little snowman and Let it Snow were stamped using the Mini Misti tool, and colored pens. I added some Stickles to the snowman for his black buttons. Love the colors I used for this card, they are not your normal traditional Christmas colors but they sure are fun!

Hope you enjoyed my post for today, and thank you so much for stopping by!
Have a lovely day!

Hugs to all,

If Friends Were Flowers Card

 Hello everyone and Happy Friday to you all! Today's sweet Queen Bee card was designed for Really Reasonable Ribbon and also for a sweet friend of mine who loves crowns, so I thought this would be super cute to give to her as a thank you card. I used Really Reasonable Ribbon's beautiful ribbons and embellishments on this one, along with some adhesives as well. I will list everything below. All dies used are Cheery Lynn's darling dies, just LOVE them and of course had to use them again to create this sweet card.

Whimsical Bee B800- cut in black, and then added Daffodil Satin Ribbon behind for the yellow and white swirl, love the look it gives to the die cut. super fun and cute! For the crown on the bee I used Cheery Lynn's Ornate crowns B891, and then painted using perfect pearls for the shimmer, and Stickles for the glitz.  Of course I had to add a sweet RRR flower to the left lower corner of the crown. On the bee I also added a Heart Embellishment from RRR.  The bee is placed on a white  Flourish frame.
Daisy Strip B259- daisy flowers were cut in white and then dabbed with yellow ink and I added some black dots to the edges of each petal. Next I hot glued the little flower to the center of the daisy.

Really Reasonable Ribbon Supplies Used:
Crosshatch Peony Satin Ribbon
Black Plaid ribbon
white pearl daisy flowers(centers of daisies and corners of card)
Heart Embellishment
Resin Pink Flowers
Daffodil Satin Ribbon
Foam Squares
Scotch Adhesive Refill ATG tape

 This card was so much fun to create.  I made this one using some of the leftover design papers from my other Bee card I posted at the beginning of this week. I just added some pink and of course changed the layout and design a little, but used all the same dies, except the crown was added. I LOVE the way this one turned out, and hope she loves it too!

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

Thanks a Bunch 3-D Card

Hello Crafty Friends, and Happy Friday to you all! I'm sure you all are ready for your weekend, I know I am. So today I have a super fun and sweet Thanks A Bunch card. This is a Pop Up card I designed for Really Reasonable Ribbon using their beautiful ribbons, flowers, leaves and embellishments.  I love that Really Reasonable Ribbon carries all these beauties!

My card was designed with a 3-D pop up die from Cheery Lynn Designs to create my card base. Next I picked out this super cute design paper that I've had for awhile now, as I'm trying to use up some of my design papers that I forget about. I made 4 layers all different sizes, as I LOVE layering! Each layer is put together using Really Reasonable Ribbon Scotch Refill tape 1/4" wide. Love this tape! Its so easy to use and doesn't get caught up on the wheel of the ATG gun. I also popped the layers by using the Tombow 3-D foam tabs. I use them on just about every card , as I love the 3-D look they give. :)

Ribbon Treatment: I used Really Reasonable Ribbon Concentric Circles on Ocean Blue Satin ribbon for the bottom bow, it was in my scrap jar.  Then for the top I used the super pretty Pink Canvas Color Band with Stitched Edge, as its new to my stash, and wanted to use it. I absolutely LOVE this ribbon and will have to get more of the colors, as this is my first time using it.

Flowers: I used these gorgeous flowers (1st time) from Really Reasonable Ribbon and they are called Pretty Flori Pastel Anemone.  They are beautiful in person, and the perfect size for cards and albums! They are backed with the Green Leaves. I know they will be perfect for many other projects as well.

Tag:  It was in my stash and I thought how cute it would be to add a sentiment to it. So I used these darling Thicker flower-like alphabet to spell A Bunch , the A is in the left corner right above the Bunch. Lastly I added a little resin embellishment flower to the T.

Really Reasonable Ribbon Supplies Used:
3-Foam Tabs Tombow
Scotch Advanced Tape Glider Refills 1/4"
Green Leaves
Pretty Flori Pastel Anemone
Pink Canvas Colored Band with Stitched Edge
Concentric Circles on Ocean Blue Satin
Resin Flower with Rhinestone Flatback Cabochons embellishment

Thank you for stopping by and hope you have a wonderful day!
Hugs to all,
