RRR goodies...









Hello my friends! I am popping in today to share some goodies using Really Reasonable Ribbons. My first project is a card with an envelope to tuck in a gift card for someone's birthday. Around these parts we love Barne's and Noble's so that is what is tucked in my gift enclosure. I used some shabby papers and digi images for my card. I embellished it using ivory burlap ribbon which I pulled a part and wound through my little tag banner and in my buttons. I also used seambinding in white and dyed it imperfectly with some Tim Holtz ink for a worn look. The bottom of the card has Penelope lace to finish it off.
My other project used my fave Middy Biddy bags . I love to fussy these little cuties up and make tags to tuck inside. I used some papers, doily, stamps, and a few more toppings to gussy it up. I made flowers using the natural burlap with white and pink stripes . I used the same technique that I shared before, simply winding the ribbon around and around. I layered them with some chiffon flowers, pearls,and fabric. The background of the bag uses the jute ivory ribbon ...which is my new favorite. I topped the bag and tags off with seambinding in baby pink and bakers twine in cotton candy.
I also used a border of pink velvet at the bottom. Just a simple project ...but fun! Hope you have enjoyed! Happy Summer, cherry

Love, love, love that polk dot bag! Makes me want one! The card is so cute. Love that banner of little envelopes. Did you use a die on them or were they already made?
