A Sweet Friendship Decorated Box

Hello everyone and Happy Wednesday to you all! Today I'm sharing a decorated laughing cow cheese box using Really Reasonable Ribbons beautiful flowers, Ribbons, and leaves, and embellishments. Love how this turned out, as it was given to my neighbor for her birthday this past weekend, she loved it!

On the box I started with covering it with paint, then used spellbinders to cut out the shapes of cardstock and design papers. I did distress them all with ink. Then I started with the Satin Delicate Stitched Pink ribbon, by making a bow, and hot gluing it tto the box. Next I made another bow using the beautiful checkered ribbon, and then started layering the flowers. I did make some flowers using the seam binding.

Also used the canvas colored band ribbon for around the box to cover the edges, there are two bands of ribbon you can see them a tad bit in the photo right below.

Checkered Ribbon Green, Ivory and Pink

Seam Binding Vivid PInk and Rose Petal

Shabby Chic Decorated Egg using Really Reasonable Ribbon

Hello everyone and Happy Wednesday to all! Today I have a super sweet Glitter Egg that I decorated with all Really Reasonable Ribbon, using the Gorgeous Ribbons, Lace, Seam Binding, and flowers that Bonnie at RRR carries. Love them all!!

On the egg I started with the lace, and used the wide Cindy lace, and Bonnie has others that are so pretty, you can find them Here. I then made a big bow out of the Delicate Stitched Ribbon, and then the Lace, and then used the Canvas Colored Band in Pink (LOVE this), of course I love all Ribbons...hehehehe 

So after doing all of my ribbon work for the bows, now its time to layer the flowers. I started with the Pink Carnation and green leaves 30mm, which now you cant see. After that I ruched up the checkered ribbon, if you pull a strand it ruches very nicely, or you can pull the plastic part at the top or the bottom, be careful when doing so, you can pull it out completely. Anyways once I did ruche it up I hot glued it under the sides of my carnation on both sides. I did add a Rose bud on both sides, however for some reason the one side fell out, and i forgot to hot glue it. I also added some Aster Daisy's as well.

**I save all my stems from all these flowers, I try to cut them up high close to the flower, and then I can use the wire to tie my bows. Its nice to recycle and use up all the wire for other things.

Really Reasonable Ribbon Supplies:

Lace (cindy)

1/2" checkered ribbon, green ,ivory, pink

Delicate Stitched Satin Pearl Pink Ribbon

Canvas Colored Band Pink Ribbon

Pink Carnations Mixed

30mm green leaves

10mm open roses

aster daisy

Pink Rose  2-tone pink buds

Seam Binding Rose petal

other supplies:

Plastic Easter Egg(walmart)

Hot Glue Gun

Wire(I save all the stems from the Really Reasonable Ribbon Flowers)

Floral Pocket with Tag

Hello everyone, and Happy Monday to you all!
Today I have a sweet little pocket and tag decorated with Really Reasonable Ribbons beautiful Ribbons, flowers, and bronze embellishments. I really enjoyed making this darling little pocket that will be added to one of my mini albums at a later date.

On my pocket I started with the Satin Swiss Dots Ribbon Black, i made a big bow, then added the Canvas Colored Band with Stitched Edge Pink as another bow on top. Next I chose to make a ruched up floral piece to add on top of that using the checkered ribbon with the stitched edge in geen/ivory/pink. Its really easy to do, all you do is pull the plastic string part from inside the ribbon at the top and it makes it ruche up so pretty, you can make flowers, or whatever you like to add to your flower clusters. I even made one for the tag.

for the floral cluster I chose to use the pink carnation, a few different rose buds in pinks, and white. Then used the mini Sweetheart Blossoms in pink, and also the aster daisy in a light pink. For the window doors I used the beautiful Bronze Embellishments.

I love the design papers I used for this , they came from a paper stack called Heidi swapp. I made the tag so it would fit inside the pocket.  Its nice to have these done and ready for mini albums, as you can add them at a later date.

The bags, they were up in my cabinets, you know I had these for a long time, they were kinda flimsy , but after adding the good design paper around them, they ended up being super sturdy and very very nice bags, strong enough to hold a heavy large chocolate candy kiss and several other items.

Adding Paper- after  gluing and using Scotch tape runner and 5/8" Scor-Tape(helps to keep paper on WELL)  to put my paper on, I added the beautiful Really Reasonable Ribbon Gabrielle Off White Lace , I also used the Beautiful Pearl Pink Delicate Satin Ribbon to create a beautiful big bow, then added the darling Strawberry Brownie Stitch grosgrain ribbon on top of that. I then made my glass flowers using Cheery Lynns flower dies(my makersmovement) and placed an 8mm white flatbacked pearl in the center of it.

Cluster of flowers and dies-

Sweet Fox Valentines Day Candy Pocket

Hello everyone and Happy Friday to you all! Today I have these darling Candy Fox Heart Pockets I made using all Heart shape die cuts, and Really Reasonable Ribbon, and embellishments.I made 12 of these to give at our Doll Club Meeting for February, for Valentines Day exchange. I thought they would be cute and fun to give to the ladies. I really enjoyed making these, and thought next time I will have to try to make some Kitty Cats maybe, they would be super cute too!

To start with I cut out 24 large hearts, remember they are pouches to hold a candy, so the back is the same as the front. I then glued the edges together to create 12. Next I took a smaller heart and cut 12 white for the foxes face, and cut it in half, and then cut a little off of it, and glued it down to the top. I thought wouldnt it be darling to have the eyes heart shaped as well, so I used Really Reasonable Ribbons Heart shaped pearls, and then added the black to the centers. Now if you have those black pearls really small, you can use those, but I had the viva pen, and used it. The tip isnt working so well on it, so the dots dont come out as great as they use to, but it worked., Next I used Really Reasonable Ribbons White 8mm pearl, and colored it black for the nose. The ears I used 2 different sizes of hearts , and then made 2 different bows and added a flower to the center. Love making these darling foxes, they were so fun. Next I am going to try to make some kitty Cats, I think they would be so darling too!
Really Reasonable Ribbon Supplies used:
8mm flat backed Pearl
11mm white pearl bead heart shape
10mm Resin flower
Ribbon Club assortment for the bows
Delicate Stitched Ribbon
Scotch Advanced Tape Refill
Saved Wire from all the Mulberry flowers

Other Supplies:
Heart dies
Viva Pearl pen in black
branch punch
design paper
candy
glue gun
wire from flowers

for this darling pocket I started by using the library die and cut out the darling paper with it, next I used the white card stock and cut the window die , and then my baby lamb was all cut in white, and then distressed using distress ink and copic pens to color the pink on the little lamb. I wanted to keep the window all white and the swirl I cut in white and left it all white, as I wanted to add a little greenery using the branches, and then the open roses. On the window I did add RRR flower embellishments, and they too are white, and love how they look. This sweet lamb was so fun to color up, its an oldie, but was fun to work with, as its been awhile since Ive used it. The tag I just cut using the cutter, and then punched a hole and added some more ribbon, and then rose buds.
