Welcome to the RRR October Blog Hop.
If you arrived here from Amber’s 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 is all about Christmas. I just love a great traditional Christmas color ribbon collection, don’t you??!
I’ve used four of the ribbon styles from the RRR October Ribbon Club assortment on my card today. The pretty Emerald Checkerboard Satin topped with the Christmas Fun Flower Satin runs across my card under the sentiment panel. To avoid extra bulk, I dove-tailed the ends of each piece. I topped off the card with a beautiful bi-color double-loop bow created on my Bow-it-All V2.0. For a video tutorial on how this bow was made, please click HERE.
My card features lots of wonderful dies from Cheery Lynn Designs including the fabulous Poinsettia Strip die for those gorgeous flowers. All the dies used are listed on the supply list at the bottom of this post. Cheery Lynn Designs has a wide selection of dies to help you create stunning holiday cards.
May card is being entered in the following challenges:
Here is my ‘Headband of the Month’. I will say this – you should definitely experiment with printed ribbons because sometimes even the most unlikely combinations end up giving you fabulous results! For a video tutorial on how to create this headband, please click HERE. Different arrangement of the ribbons in the starting position create different looks on the finished piece.
I would love for you to leave a comment before you go.
