Thank You to Bonnie Garby and the Really Reasonable Design Team

Welcome back Really Reasonable Ribbon bloggers and this will be my last card for Really Reasonable Ribbon blog and challenges at this time. I have a grand son  born in May and I will be babysitting him from now on while my daughter returns back to work.  Therefore, I will be spending most of my time with him and very little time for awhile in my craft room until he gets about 6 months older and beginning to take good naps since now he only take baby power naps during the day any where from 10 minutes up to 40 minutes.

I want to thank Bonnie and the wonderful designers on this team for their fantastic support and I learned so much from all of you and thoroughly enjoyed our discussions. I regret leaving since I loved everything about what we did besides the super great customer service, support and care from Bonnie and the team besides working with gorgeous ribbon and flowers from the Really Reasonable Ribbon store.  I recommend any one who loves working with ribbon and looking to be on a design team, this is a number one place to be.

Also, the bloggers who put their cards on the blogs or made a comment on my cards, I want to especially thank you for all that you do.

But back to my card.  The May Art ribbons such as the May Arts Silky Rust Red ribbon are always gorgeous on cards and projects.  I used the Zutter Bow It All bow maker to make this double layered bow and attached it with the 1" Scor-Tape.  I used the wonderful instructions by Bonnie Garby's You-Tube HERE that explains how to make a double layered double bow but just go around the pegs once instead of twice.  I added a pearl brad to the center of the bow and attached it to my card  

Other supplies used:
Sue Wilson Designs-Grace
Sue Wilson Designs-Noble Pierce Rectangle
3mm flat back string pearls
Sue Wilson Designs - Rambling Rose embossing folder
Bazzill card stock
Whimsy Stamp - Rowan

So Glad You're My Friend

Welcome back bloggers and I am excited to share my card with you using  this gorgeous 7/8" Double Faced Satin Old Gold ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon.  I used the Zutter Bow It All bow maker from Really Reasonable Ribbon to make this bow and added an antique gold brad with a pearl in the center of the bow.  The Zutter Bow It All comes with instructions on how to make this bow as well as Bonnie Garby has fantastic U-Tube video on line.

I highly recommend using the Scor-Tape from Really Reasonable Ribbon to apply your ribbons and bows onto your cards.  The tape remains sticky to take the ribbon or bow off and on your card until you get the ribbon and bow arranged the way you like it.

Also from Really Reasonable Ribbon are the gorgeous Wild Orchid Craft flowers that were used on this card.

Really Reasonable Ribbon 

Scent Of Lavender

I love the colors of lavender and orchid this year and Really Reasonable Ribbon has the variety of ribbon and supplies for your project or card.  I love the seam binding colors of Sun Rose and  Vivid Pink for this bow and used the Zutter Bow It All to put these bow together with these two seam binding colored ribbons.  I use the Scor-Tape to attach the bow to the card.  I love using this Scor-Tape in case I want to rearrange the bow on this tape and the adhesive tape will still remain sticky.

I love adding vintage buckle sliders or brads to my bows on my vintage or Shabby Chic cards.  Also, I made this hat pin since many women use to have hat pins in their gorgeous hats.

Other supplies used:  Cheery Lynn Designs Polynesian Sails Oval die, Sue Wilson Designs - Camellia Flowers, Marianne Designs Flourish,  Pion Designs Scent of Lavender card stock, Sue Wilson Designs - Double Pierced Nobel Rectangle, 3mm flat back pearls.

Mermaid Shelley

I love working with Really Reasonable Ribbons and what a variety of ribbons, sizes, colors and other supplies that Really Reasonable Ribbons carry.  These bows were made using the gorgeous 3/8" wide Diamond Satin Hyacinth from the stunning July Club Assortment or purchased separately from the Really Reasonable Ribbon on-line store.  The other bow was made using the stunning Seam Binding Peacock Alley blue ribbon.  

I couldn't have made these bows without the Zutter Bow It All bow maker at Really Reasonable Ribbon.   Once you have used it, you will always use it to make  all of your gorgeous bows.  I used Scor Tape from Really Reasonable Ribbon to attach my ribbon and bow onto the card.  I love using this Scor Tape since I can arrange my bow on this tape as well as remove it a few times and the tape remains sticky. I add a Wild Orchid Craft flower from Really Reasonable Ribbon on the bow and above right corner.  

I made the bubbles just using the hot glue gun glue.  When the bubbles cooled down, I glued it onto the card.  

Other supplies:
Wee digi Stamp - Mermaid Shelley
Sue Wilson Designs - Pierced Rectangle
La La Land - Heart Banner
Sue Wilson - Gemini - Lyra die

Merry Christmas

Lipstick Red Seam Binding Ribbon

This is my posting day for Really Reasonable Ribbon.  Hi, I am Nancy Hill and very excited to share with you my card as well as this gorgeous Lipstick Red seam binding ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon at $.30 a yard.  This color is deep red to match perfectly with the poinsettia and colors in the Graphic 45 paper.  Soon,  I will be ordering the roll of this gorgeous Lipstick Red seam binding ribbon for my Christmas cards and Valentine cards.  

I made this bow using the Zutter Bow It All bow maker which I have been recommending to everyone since I bought mine over a year ago from Really Reasonable Ribbon.  I had given the Zutter Bow It All  bow maker as Christmas gift to my friends and now they are recommending it to everyone as well.  I always attach my ribbons and bows to my cards or projects using the Scor Tape from Really Reasonable Ribbon.  This tape is a must for me and Really Reasonable Ribbon carries various sizes.  

I added a pearl antique brad for the center of this bow since I wanted the bow to bring out the poinsettia.  I added the new Tutti Designs Dove Circle die that was cut with gold mirror card stock.  The embossing folder is the Creative Expression-Sue Wilson-Snow Flake Lattice on white/gold shimmer card stock.  The Merry Christmas is a die cut from Cheery Lynn Designs.

Sizzlin Summer Sunshine

Really Reasonable Ribbon challenge theme is the Sizzlin Summer with the gorgeous
Citrus Assortment in the June Ribbon Club Assortment.  Isn't this assortment of gorgeous ribbon in the June Ribbon Club  what you need for your cards or projects for this summer or even this fall!

I am using the stunning 5/8" wide Maize Taffeta ribbon that you can find in this Citrus Assortment assortment or separately from Really Reasonable Ribbon on-line store.  I added a brad in the center of the double bow.  The double bow was made from the Zutter Bow It All  bow maker from Really Reasonable Ribbon.  If you are struggling making beautiful bows, the Zutter Bow It All is what you need.  If you want to know more information on this fantastic bow maker, watch a few of Bonnie Garby's You Tube videos to get you started.

I attached the ribbon and bow using the Scor-Tape from Really Reasonable Ribbon.  I really find this adhesive tape important for me to use on my ribbons and bows since I can take the bow or ribbon off of the adhesive tape a few times to arrange my ribbons and bows and the tape remains sticky.


Other supplies used:
Graphic 45 Card stock - Time To Flourish
Sue Wilson Designs - Thank You die
Cheery Lynn Designs - Daisy die
Tattered Lace - Paradise Ferns die
