This collection is a great ribbon assortment for all your Fall Projects you got in mind - cards, banners, scrapbook pages, mini albums, home decor or many other projects. You don't want to pass this ribbon assortment up!! 

Here is my project using this awesome ribbon assortment

I created a little pumpkin decoration for my dining room table. 

 I cut burlap into about 2.5 x 2.5 squares, but I didn't really measure

I just cut to the size I thought would best fit around the 

small pumpkin. I used TH walnut distress inks on the edges of the 

squares and hot glued them onto the small pumpkin.

 I then took the 3/8"Diamond Satin Kiwi Green and 3/8"Checkerboard Satin Ribbon Tangerine  

hot glued them onto the sides of the pumpkin. I then took Wild Orchid flowers  

Open Roses Orange glued those onto the green ribbons. 
I created a bow with the 5/8"Square in Square print Satin Ribbon Tangerine  

using the Bow It All 3.0  then adhered my bow onto the pumpkin.  

For the stem of the pumpkin I used Baker's Twine Green Solid and wrapped 

it around the stem twice. I then took some more of those beautiful flowers 

from the store Wild Orchid Craft Sweetheart Blossoms Mixed Brown & White and

Mixed Christmas/Seasonal Tuscany Roses 30mm using the brown & tan and I 
applied stickles - Champagne. 

Here is a close up of how I did a cascading flower effect 

down the pumpkin using Wild Orchid flowers from the 

Really Reasonable Ribbon Store. 

Supplies: Really Reasonable Ribbon - August Ribbon Club Assortment - Colors of Autumn; 3/8"Diamond Satin Kiwi Green and 3/8"Checkerboard Satin Ribbon Tangerine ;

From Owl Of Us a HB card

Hello There All,

Hope you had a great weekend. My weekend was pretty good, had my granddaughter over, and visited with my kids. :D  and got some crafting done. 

I created this Happy Birthday card for my Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog post today using this month July monthly club assortment "Pink and Purple".  

Such a beautiful ribbon collection.

If you love ribbon and creating things with it I suggest you join the monthly ribbon club. You will love getting a new ribbon selection every month, It's like Christmas. lol 

Well, Here is my card and everything I used to create it with a small photo tutorial. 

First I used the following ribbon on the rosette - 5/8"Geranium Pink Taffeta Ribbon

I have been meaning to do a tutorial but I thought a few still shots might be good too. I plan on doing a tutorial with next months ribbons so stay tuned. :D 

Place some double sided adhesive on your paper and cut a circle (any size you decide). Then you want to pleat the ribbon going along the edge of the circle, it also reminds me like when you are fluting a pie crust. I get the middle of my ribbon and start pleating, I try to stay in the middle of the ribbon all the way around the circle but sometimes it gets a little wonky. With the double adhesive you can unravel and redo it. You can also use hot glue but be careful not to burn yourself and I am not sure if you can unravel the ribbon if you need to (I used the double adhesive cause I am always burning my fingers. lol )

Second photo: Once you reach the end of your circle cut your ribbon.

Get some glue and adhere. My favorite glue is glitter art glue. It's sticks great and dries pretty quickly.

For the Front of the card I used 5/8"Lattice Print Satin Ribbon Geranium Pink; 

5/8"Lattice Print Satin Ribbon Hyacinth ; 3/8"Wildflower Grosgrain Ribbon

So here is the rosette all finished. I used a circle scallop punch and adhered it on top and then added my "happy birthday" on top of the that with the stickles out lining the words for some bling. :D 

Here is a close up

I just love the ribbons are so cheery and go so well together with this paper. 

I used my  Bow-it-All V3.0 Tool to make the little bow 3/8"Wildflower Grosgrain Ribbon

that is such a cute little ribbon to have in your collection if you like flowers. 

For the inside of the card I did a little pocket with a tag showing all the Owls on a tree limb. I thought I would write "From Owl of Us". :D and stick a little gift card in the back.  For the pocket and tag I used these ribbons. 3/8"Geranium Checkerboard Satin Ribbon; 3/8"Diamond Satin Hyacinth and used a punch to make my scallop edge.

WOOOHOOOO!! Blog Hop Day At Really Reasonable Ribbons!!

Yea!!! It's Blog Hop Day at Really Reasonable Ribbon!!

Today is the Blog Hop at Really Reasonable Ribbons!! Whoot, Whoot!!  If you are here you just came over from Kathy's blog - KathybyDesign. Wasn't her card just scrumptious!

If you are off track you can always head back to Really Reasonable Ribbons Blog  OR To Participate click on - Really Reasonable Ribbons Blog.

To Ring In The 4th of July I made a 4th of July Wreath with the Ribbon of the Month May Ribbon Club Assortment.  This May Assortment is just amazing so much you can do with it and the ribbons are so pretty!!! Don't they just look YUMMY!!

Here is my 4th of July Wreath -

 In using this Gorgeous Patriotic Collection I made rosettes using

each ribbon from the collection. Layered large, medium and small. 

To make the rosettes I cut circles, 2 inches, 1 1/2 inch, and 1 inch punches.

I used hot glue gun to adhere my ribbons onto the circles. 

I used the Satin double ruffle ribbon Peacock to wrap my wreath over the 

burlap and then tied a lovely bow so it would hang. 

I also used the little Sweetheart Blooms Mixed Colors  Red, Blue & White

here and there around the wreath. 

In the middle of the wreath I made a little Flag with the word "freedom" and

used the ribbons for the streams. 

For my streams I used the following ribbons -

3/8"Diamond Satin Electric Blue, 3/8"Checkerboard Satin Poppy Red, 

3/8"Random Patriotic Stars on White Grosgrain, 3/8"American Flag Print on Satin

 3/8"Patriotic Chevron Grosgrain Ribbon and a rosette adhered to 

the American Flag print ribbon. 

 Here is a close up of the red rosette I made with the ribbons. 

I am so pleased with how these turned out. So easy to work with!! 

I used 5/8" PoppyRed Double-faced Satin, with 5/8"Plaid Ribbon Royal Blue

For the cute little one in the middle - 3/8"American Flag Print on Satin 

For the bottom one I used 5/8"Plaid Ribbon Royal Blue and 3/8"Diamond Satin Electric Blue, 3/8"Checkerboard Satin Poppy Red

Close Up of the Top of the wreath. I just love how the "Chevron" ribbon creates a

 zigzag look on the rosette. so pretty. 

The little middle rosette is made with  3/8"Patriotic Chevron Grosgrain Ribbon; 

I used Electric Blue Double-faced Satin, 5/8" PoppyRed Double-faced Satin, 3/8"Random Patriotic Stars on White Grosgrain for the large rosette by the little sweetheart blossom flowers. Isn't that

Stars on White Grosgrain so awesome with the blue & red ribbons?? 

I Love It!!! :D 

 Close Up of the Right side of the wreath. Here are the ribbons I used for these Rosettes - 

These are for the top Rosette -

5/8"Plaid Ribbon Red ; 5/8"Electric Blue Double-faced Satin

 For the cute little one in the middle - 3/8"American Flag Print on Satin 

For the red and blue rosette - Electric Blue Double-faced Satin; 5/8" PoppyRed Double-faced Satin 

I am loving the American Flag print, I gotta get some more of that one!! 

 Close Up of the bottom right side of the wreath. I just love how the little flowers really 

a softness to the wreath. they are so cute. :D The colors of these ribbons are just so 

vibrant and lively. In person they are just stunning, seriously!  

Supplies:  From the Really Reasonable Ribbon Store

Satin double ruffle ribbonPeacock; Sweetheart Blooms Mixed Colors    and   NEW Patriotic Collection     

 From my Stash - I used those little stars that are from the dollar store 4th of July necklaces. Burlap, and paper & stickers from BoBunny.
