Hello friends and Happy Saturday!
Today my card uses some of the unsung heroes from Really Reasonable Ribbon for embellishing Autumn themed cards.
I’ve used Natural Mesh Ribbon across the center of the card under the sentiment. The ivory color would work as well. The ribbon is really strings of fibers which are held together with a thin monofilament. I simply unraveled the monofilament until the strands were loose up to the edge of the sentiment panel. This gives the look of adding several strands of string, evenly spaced beneath the sentiment panel without the hassle!
This rustic bow was created on my Bow-it-All V2.0 in less than a minute. Really!! I just figure eight wrapped the Cocoa Jute String around the pegs until I had 4 loops on each side. When tying my knot I wrapped the center string around two extra times to make a wider center for the bow. That’s it. To see a video tutorial for a similar bow, please click HERE.
I couldn’t resist adding a feathered layer of natural mulberry paper to complete my card. Be sure to stop back on Monday for a video tutorial on how I create the beautiful feathered edges on my mulberry paper.

This is a gorgeous card!! Love all the texture you added!! Thank you for playing along with us at Little Red Wagon this week!! 🙂
Beautiful!!! I am not sure what the mulberry paper is as I have never heard of it before, but I am thinking it is the white layers, if so I LOVE it! I couldn't figure out if that was felt or what until I read further. Such a neat effect! Thank you for playing along in the Word Art Wednesday Challenge! Have a blessed day!
