I have absolutely loved my time on the Really Reasonable Ribbon Design Team. Adding ribbons, trims and twines to my projects is just something that I enjoy. It adds so much texture and color to our cards. And, hey, you can't make tags and other things without trims. They're rather essential in crafting. Items like Baker's Twine and Burlap String are SUPER affordable, and SO versatile in crafting. Now is a great time to stock up on some really AMAZING DISCOUNTS on ribbons, trims and twines (among many other great things) at Really Reasonable Ribbon during their BIG RETIREMENT SALE.
I used a deep forest green cardstock to cut my base using the Stitched Rectangle Dies from Creative Worship. I used their Postage Stamp Cover Plate Die to cut the next layer from vintage sheet music. I cut some red cardstock to cover two of the openings, and I stamped those using the fun Going Postal Stamp Set. The sentiment is also from Creative Worship and can be found in the Holiday Cheer Stamp Set.Like I tend to do rather often, I piled a lot on here. I'll try to mention everything I used. The small coffee cups are from V's Sweet Ideas, the "cookie" is from Paper Sweeties, the bobbin and holly leaves are from PTI. My ribbon treatment includes lots of great Baker's Twine which is now just $0.75/yard. WOW! What a bargain! You'll find so many AMAZING DISCOUNTS right now at Really Reasonable Ribbon, and you'll want to stock up before the best colors are gone. SO pretty!I also tucked in some delicious Cherry Baker's Twine, Solid Red Baker's Twine, Ivory Burlap String and Iridescent String for a touch of shimmery sparkle. Aren't all those wonderful textures just so cool? I used 3-D Foam Tabs to raise up the dimensional items a bit. Grab these awesome items now at bargain prices and stay ahead of things so that you don't run out of Adhesives, Mulberry Flowers, Stamens or other essentials.Thank you so much for visiting today. It's always a real blessing to have you stop by and leave your thoughts. Why not treat yourself today? Take advantage of these DISCOUNTED PRICES on all your favorite ribbons, trims and more. Go on ahead, you deserve it.
I'm sharing my sweet caffeinated Christmas card in the following challenges where I enjoy playing along whenever I'm able to do so:
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - SPARKLE & SHINE - I added white sugar glitter to the inside of my layered cookie to add some Sparkle & Shine to this card. Every card needs a touch of Sparkle & Shine.
Pammie's Inky Pinkies Challenge Blog - Challenge #2549 Sponsored by Newton's Nook
The Die Cuttin' Diva's Challenges - December: Christmas/Winter Theme using die-cuts. All the dies I used on my card are mentioned and linked above.
Coffee Loving Papercrafters' Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge #48 - December: Anything Goes Christmas and caffeinated. I used a mish mash of different products on this card, and they're all mentioned above. I love to play along here whenever I can. It's so much FUN!
Double D Challenges - December: Christmas Wrappings - I love to tie things up in a bow. Tucking a gift card or a bookmark inside my cards is always something unexpected that I try to incorporate. This card has a Starbucks card tucked inside.Stay creative, everyone.
Blessings,
Karen
