Are you ready for another FUN Hop with Really Reasonable Ribbon? This is a special one. You can join our first ever Instagram Hop for your chance to WIN a $20 credit to Really Reasonable Ribbon and a digital stamp set of choice from Bonnie Garby Designs. Just head on over to the RRR IG Page to get started on this FUN hop.
This month our Hop theme is Mother's Day/Flowers and Spring. You can find lots of great inspiration for creating beautiful Mother's Day cards and gifts among other great projects using Ribbons, Twines, Seam Binding, Flowers and more. Really Reasonable Ribbon carries so many great products to help you adorn your cards and projects. My Mother's Day card started with this Free Floral Cross-Stitch Image I found on Pinterest. I simply switched the pink colors for coordinating shades of blue DMC floss. I secured everything using Scor-Tape.
My pretty bow includes lengths of Danish Blue Seam Binding, Glory Blue Seam Binding, Lace Blue Seam Binding and Cream Seam Binding that I "dirtied" with ink as well as a length of Medium Blue Striped Baker's Twine that holds a tiny silver (made with love) charm from my stash. Other miscellaneous items include a Prima butterfly paperclip, a Prima vintage blue ticket, vintage scotch tape and some pretty stick pins. The sentiment is from Stamp Simply and it's cut with their Fishtail Banner Dies.
You're always welcome to visit the Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog. You'll find lots of great inspiration there. Thanks so much for visiting me here today, and please stop by again soon. In the meantime, treat yourself to something wonderful from Really Reasonable Ribbon. Oh, for your chance to WIN, don't miss the RRR IG Hop.
I'm sharing my card here:
Beautiful Blooms Challenge Blog - Challenge #75 - Anything Goes w/Optional Mood Board. I am very much drawn to the beautiful bouquet of flowers in the inspiration photo. Using florals is always fun - whether they are stitched, paper flowers, stamped and die-cut or any other kind. Bring on the flowers!!

Not 2 Shabby Monthly Challenge - April: Mood Board - Not 2 Shabby does carry some Waffle Flower products (since I used a Waffle Flower die for my stitching element). You can see that I was drawn to the sweet little blue/white flowers.
Triple B - Birds, Butterflies and Blooms - April: Anything Goes - For this card, I incorporated Blooms and a Butterfly (paper clip).
The Paper Funday Challenges: April: Challenge #75 - Anything Goes w/Letter B. Well, I used LOTS of BLUE on my card, as well as a Butterfly clip.
A Cut Above Challenge Blog - April: Anything Goes - I used a cross-stitch die from Waffle Flower and a Fishtail Banner Die from Stamp Simply.
Blessings,
Karen
