Halloween Card with Orange and Black Grosgrain

This is the second post of the day. Please scroll down to see the winners from RRR's challenge #7.

Happy Saturday!

True :D here.

Hope your weekend is off to a great start!

I just absolutely LOVE the Orange and Black Swiss Dots Grosgrain from Really Reasonable Ribbon!

I need to order some more because I have already used it on several projects. ;)

This time I paired it up with my "Autumn Friends" digi that is available for instant download now @ Clear Dollar Stamps.

It was a fun image to draw but it's even more fun to color!

Thanks so much for dropping in again!

I would love for you to leave me some love! ;)

Transform a Halloween Trick Into a Real Treat With Ribbon!

Hello!

True :D here.

It is Saturday so it is my turn to post a project! :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was so excited when I opened up my latest package from Really Reasonable Ribbon and saw the adorable "Halloween" ribbon of the month collection!

Bonnie has such a knack for putting just the right ribbons together for her sets.

I know you all have "special" ghosts and goblins that come to visit on Halloween. Maybe a special teacher or friend you would like to treat. Well....here is a quick and easy way to make a nice sweet gift.

Wal-Mart (and most other stores) have their Halloween candy out already which is great for us crafters. I picked up some little plastic jars filled with different kinds of candy for just $3.00 each! They are a tad ugly but I knew how to make them "gift worthy"!

I made tags, stamped them with some Penny Black stamps, and decorated them with assorted pieces of the September Ribbon of the Month collection. They took me just a few minutes to do and will make some little pumpkins squeal with delight!

You could also use Halloween stickers to decorate your tags instead of stamping. There are some really cute ones in the craft stores now!

Halloween is still a ways off so you have tons of time to do this too.

Head on over to Really Reasonable Ribbon and sign up for their ribbon of the month club.

You can also buy the individual ribbons if you would prefer.
Now through 9/12, Bonnie is giving 10% off by using the promotional code VACASALE in the promotional code area on the first page of checkout.
Don't forget, we are doing a DESIGN TEAM CALL, so if you love playing with pretty ribbons, check out the details HERE.

Thanks so much for dropping by!

If I say "Trick Or Treat" will you leave us a comment?

TRICK OR TREAT!!!! ;)

Hugs,

True :D
