Happy Birthday w/Really Reasonable Ribbon

When it comes to ribbons, trims, laces, twines, strings, ginghams, silks, grosgrain, and all things spooled; we know that Really Reasonable Ribbon is the place to go for all these fabulous trims.  However, did you know that Really Reasonable Ribbon also carries fabulous Mulberry Flowers, Adhesives, Embellishments and so much more?
This first photo (although not a fabulous photo) shows you both of the cards I created for today's post.  I combined some simple trims from Really Reasonable Ribbon with some awesome sentiments from Bonnie Garby Designs.  They can be found in the Birthday Greetings 2 Digital Stamp Bundle.  These fabulous digital sentiments make it easy and affordable to create beautiful cards.
This first card uses white cardstock and some various patterned paper scraps from my older stash paper bins.  I ran a length of beautiful White Satin Feminine Floral Ribbon down the left-hand side of my card securing it in place with Scor-Tape.  I also wrapped that side with a long length of Solid Deep Pink Baker's Twine.  I strung several cute White Faux Pearl Flatback Hearts from the Embellishments Section.
Every single sentiment from Bonnie Garby Designs is beautiful.  You can see how crisp and clear these sentiments look.  Stunning!  You will love all the wonderful options at Bonnie Garby Designs too.  And at Really Reasonable Ribbon, you can find so many great crafting products from Adhesives to Ribbons and SO much more.
My second card uses white cardstock and patterned papers from Echo Park Have Faith 6x6 Paper Pad.  The sentiment is also found in the Birthday Greetings 2 Digital Stamp Bundle from Bonnie Garby Designs.  That pretty grosgrain ribbon I used on this card is called Roses w/Scalloped Edge on Navy Grosgrain.  It's sold out, but there's still a beautiful Coral version available.
If you don't yet have a "most favorite Adhesive", you will definitely want to check out Scor-Tape.  It comes it several great widths and it holds things in place securely.  That's one great thing about RRR...most of what they offer comes in several options.  You're sure to find several things to help you in your crafting.  Thanks so much for stopping by today to take a peek.  Happy crafting, everyone.

I'm playing along in the following challenges I love:


Cupcake Inspirations Challenge - Challenge #600 - I'm entering my first Birthday card in this FUN challenge.  I also want to wish this awesome Design Team a very celebrated birthday/anniversary and to thank them all for providing us with fabulous inspiration and great challenges.....600 of them!

The Paper Funday Challenges: August - Anything Goes w/Optional Twist of Summer Vacation/Holiday - I used the Anything Goes option.  There are SO many layers of paper on these cards.  I absolutely LOVE this challenge and being inspired to use up my paper stash.  These papers came from deep down in my stash!  LOL  Come, join the fun!

Blessings,
Karen
