We all love making cards, right? While there are so many different styles and techniques out there to try and to enjoy, I personally enjoy adding the warmth and texture of some type of trim. Whether it be a true Grosgrain Ribbon bow, some Burlap String or Baker's Twine, or even some lovely Seam Binding like I'm using on today's card.....you can always find the perfect style, width, color and design to match all your art at Really Reasonable Ribbon.I pulled out some much older patterned papers and the stickers, ephemera and goodies that came in this lovely Pretty Party line from Crate Paper. Lots of pattern paper layers indeed. Here and there, you'll see tiny bits of the stickers from this line. I wanted to pull on the colors, so I used a texture stamps (or two) from Creative Worship Stamps. These encouraging stamped sentiments are from Stamp Simply.I ran a length of my favorite color of Seam Binding which is the Bayleaf Seam Binding. It matches these patterned papers so perfectly. It's truly a beautiful color. I tied a bow again using the Bayleaf Seam Binding, some bundled Ivory Burlap String, and added some fun accents to include stick pins, an Open Rose, and some sweet little Mulberry Leaves.I wrapped the Ivory Burlap String all the way around my card. As I said, I do love the texture and warmth it adds to cards. The pretty Ivory Open Rose I used on this card comes in many beautiful colors. Most all of the Mulberry Flowers we carry come in various colors and sizes. There's such a great selection at Really Reasonable Ribbon. Give yourself some time to look around at ALL there is to offer. Oh, and everything is held together with these fabulous Adhesives.Thanks so much for visiting today.
