Welcome to the RRR November Blog Hop.
If you arrived here from Jeanne’s awesome blog, you are on the right track. If not, why not head back to the RRR Blog and start from the beginning so you don’t miss any of the terrific projects.
This month the Really Reasonable Ribbon Monthly Ribbon Club Assortment consists of black, charcoal grey and a deep scarlet red. I just love all the rich dark colors. Isn’t it great for the holidays??! You can use the assortment alone or pair it with some of the brighter colors from past assortments to really make a statement.
Did you know that Really Reasonable Ribbon has gift subscriptions for our Monthly Ribbon Club? You can order a 3, 6 or 12 month subscription for your favorite ‘crafty’ friend. The perfect gift that keeps on coming throughout the year! And seriously, can anyone ever have too much ribbon??!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I started with a CAS card (well, CAS for me!) this month. I layered some scarlet 3/8″ diamond satin on top of a piece of black shimmer satin to run across the card and added a small double bow above my center panel.
For my second card I did some ribbon weaving with a variety of style from the assortment. I was going for a flannel shirt look, but didn’t really get there. lol I like it anyway. 🙂
For my last card I used a new stamp and die set from JustRite Stamps. I embellished with one of my leftover poinsettia samples from last month. This poinsettia is made using the scarlet shimmer satin. Love it!
Supplies Used:
Ribbon – Really Reasonable Ribbon November Ribbon Club Assortment
Stamps – Quietfire Designs and JustRite Stamps
Paper – Green background paper from The Paper Studio, cardstock from my stash
Other – Assorted dies from Spellbinders and JustRite Stamps
