This month the Really Reasonable Ribbon Monthly Ribbon Club Assortment is all about Christmas.
JOIN TODAY!
The October Ribbon Club Assortment contains 9 styles and a total of 17 yards of ribbon and lace. Each monthly assortment is a color or holiday themed ribbon collection. What a fun way to build your ribbon stash and try new ribbon styles.
This month I created a pretty and sparkly Christmas card.
Dies used:
Cottage Cutz Joy Nativity die
Cheery Lynn Designs FRM154 Quatrefoil A2 Frame 2 Die Set
Cheery Lynn Designs XM7 Oval Die Cut
Cheery Lynn Designs M7 Oval Classic Stacker Layers, Small, Silver
I actually purchased the Joy Nativity die last year with the intention of using it for my Christmas cards, but it was a bit too intricate and it would have taken too much time to use it to mass produce 25+ cards. It’s a lovely die to use for a few special people though. I layered shimmery silver and gold cardstock for added interest.
My card is topped off with a pretty bi-color bow created on my Bow-it-All V3.0 Tool using two of the ribbons from the October Ribbon Club Assortment from Really Reasonable Ribbon and the center was topped with a 12mm Silver Glitter Stardust Rhinestone. I also added a double layer of pretty ribbons across the center of the card under the sentiment.
