Buttons & Bows

Hello everyone, today I'm sharing PAGE #3 of the Mini Album I'm working on. For this page I used Really Reasonable Ribbons, Lace,Seam Binding, and buttons. I also used the Beautiful Elegant Purses from CottageCutz.

I really LOVE how this album is turning out, and just got more DP's in the mail to work on another for myself. 

The CottageCutz Purses are from the NEW CottageCutz Vintage Release from The Scrapping Cottage. I used 2 of the purses on this page. 

I also made Button Flowers for this page, and thought they tied in well. The ribbon is RRR Black Satin Dots, and Pink Seam binding.

For the BIG PINK bows I used Pink Silky Crush Ribbon, and Black Crocheted Lace, all from Really Reasonable Ribbon. The pocket is perfect for a photo, and there is room for writing on the back, or another photo.

I added some different types of feathers to this as well. And some Pearl strands, they are sticky, but I hot glued them on.

Thank you for looking and cant wait to share more of my Mini Album with you!!!
Hugs to all,
Cheryl

You should have arrived here from Irit's Blog, if not you will want to start at Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog.

For my Mini Album PAGE that measures 9 x 8 
I used the Ribbons and Lace from this months Ribbon Club from Really Reasonable Ribbon. I also used some of RRR's buttons, Moss Green Leaves, and Pink Seam Binding for my layout. This is the start to another Album I will be creating for a dear friend!!

In this picture I wanted to show you how my accordion pocket looks. It holds 3 tags. I love making these and used the CottageCutz Seed Packet Envelope Die to create this accordion pocket. 

I also was sooo excited to be able to use the NEW CottageCutz Vintage Collection with this months Ribbon Club. I used the Poodle's , Lamp, Love tags, and the Doily Bell and frame die. 

There are the tags.
My Poodles were dusted with Tim Holtz ink, and so was the lamp post. I made them some little flowers for their hair out of the Pink Seam Binding that Bonnie carries at the RRR Shop.

Sparkle & Shine

Happy Valentine's Day!
6 x 6 
Hello everyone, today I'm sharing a card I designed for Victorine Originals Sparkle & Shine Challenge that started today.

To add Sparkle & Shine to my card, I used Creative Inspiration Paints on the roses, and then Resplendence Angel Dust for the bow, to give some sparkle. My heart stamp is Victorine Originals, and I LOVE this heart!!!! I colored the stamp with SU! markers and then stamped it. To give the shimmer look to the roses I used Tutu Pink Creative Inspiration Paint and brushed it over all the roses.

Next I used the sentiment also from Victorine Originals and stamped it on the little circle tag. For my Doily I used a CottageCutz die  from The Scrapping Cottage and it can be found HERE its Tea Time Doily.

All Ribbon's are from, Really Reasonable Ribbon and is seam binding. I used Baby Pink & Melon on my card here.
Hearts are from Want 2 Scrap, and I thought they were a perfect addition to my Heart Card!

Hello Friends!
Today I wanted to share with you all a Pocket Mini I designed for Really Reasonable Ribbon. I started with the 2 pages I will be showing here, and will be adding 2 more over the next couple of weeks.


So far I've used Tons of Really Reasonable Ribbon, and LOVE all the assortments I've chosen for this mini. I will list them here-
Silver Glitz Ribbon'



My mom cut these pocket pages out for me with her machine, and the tags. I've had them for awhile now, and just thought I should work on them. I am enjoying decorating them will all the ribbons ,laces, trims, and such.  I also used buttons that Bonnie carries at the Really Reasonable Ribbon shop. FI Love Buttons!!!

 I left room on the tags for photo's and then writing on the back. I think I will add another sentiment tag on the grey dp where there is no sentiment right now. 


Thank you for looking and have a wonderful day!!!

Sweet Tea Time

Hello everyone, today I made my card for Really Reasonable Ribbon's Challenge "My New Toy's & Ribbon" Challenge. We were to use some of the new things we received.

For my card here I used NEW Design Paper and NEW Really Reasonable Ribbon Buttons.
Easel Card Measures 6 x 6 
I also used Really Reasonable Ribbon's Lace and Gingham ribbon on my card. I thought a Tea Time card would be cute and fun after Christmas, and I LOVE using PINK. My tea cup and bunny are a CottageCutz Die called Springtime Tea. I also used the Tea Time Border, and the CottageCutz Fancy Filigree Wreath on my card. I did a lot of distressing with the cats eye ink pads. The Enjoy Ticket is a stamp I had. 

One of the new design papers is a column embossed brown, and I used it to cut out the Tea Time Border and it looks really neat in person. I also used it on the inside to hold the tea packet.

I distressed the tea cup, the bunny, border, ticket and white card stock on the inside. I had also stamped a sentiment on the inside up in the left corner, however I forgot to take a photo of it... hehehehe it SAYS: I adore You!!

I hope you will join us at Really Reasonable Ribbon for another super FUN challenge!!!! Cant wait to see what NEW goodies you received :)
Hugs to all,
Cheryl
