On The Menu With Really Reasonable Ribbon

Hey there, everyone!  Welcome by today as I share an extra sweet card I created for Really Reasonable Ribbon.  I used an older Crate Paper line called Peppermint for the patterned papers, chipboard and stickers.  When I saw that chipboard sentiment, I knew right away that I wanted to add a real peppermint stick or candy to  my card.  I attached my patterned papers together to create my card base by using pieces of a fabulous Adhesive called Scor-Tape, and I machine stitched along the edges of the top half.
At the center of my card (or just below center), I added a "Menu" journalling card and half of a white doily; then I ran a width of Baby Pink Seam Binding across my card.  I tied the bow with another two lengths of the Baby Pink Seam Binding as well as one length of the lovely Bay Leaf Seam Binding and a bundled length of Red Burlap String.

There are also lots of my very favorite Embellishment of all....which are the gorgeous Red Double-Head Stamens, White Double-Head Stamens, some Baby Blue Double-Head Stamens, and even a few Aqua Double-Head Stamens cascading through my bow to highlight that sweet peppermint stick.  I just LOVE LOVE LOVE Double-Head Stamens in both styles.  SO affordable and SO incredibly lovely!
I topped that sweet bow cluster with some Open Red Roses, and some Open Roses in pinks from the Mixed Pinks 10mm Open End Roses.  All the pinks in this set are GORGEOUS...just like all the wonderful Mulberry Flowers found in the RRR Shop.  Thanks again for stopping by today.  I hope you'll be sure to stop by the Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog for more inspiration and for information about special sales and events taking place.  We always love to have you visit.
