Hi there! If you're here for The Sweet Stop challenge, please scroll down. This is my second post today.
This week's Bee Crafty challenge is Ribbon and Bows. You all know how I LOVE my ribbon, so this challenge was really fun for me and I am certain it will be for you, too. You also have two weeks to participate so that's plenty of time to really find your inner ribbon artist.
Here's what I made...
A few nights ago, as I was drifting off to sleep I start envisioning a SVG frame that I could weave ribbon in. But, of course, I don't know how to create SVG files so I emailed the very sweet Penny Duncan and she made my dream come true. Isn't that a great frame! Well, it's a nested Shaplie, so it comes in all sorts of sizes. This was just what I was looking for.
Then the corners looked unfinished to me so I started playing with my ribbon to try to make roses. Well, I failed miserably so I found a great tutorial for the easiest roses ever! You can find this tutorial here. The more I made, the better they started looking.
I think I made a card that is pretty worthy of the adorable Whimsical Girl Heart Garden. She's so sweet.
Supplies:
Card stock: Neenah Classic Crest, Pink Pirouette (SU)
Copics: BV00, BV02, E00, E02, E33, E37, E53, E57, RV02, RV10, YG00, YG03, YR20
Embellishments: satin ribbon (Offray)
Tools: SCAL, Cricut, SVG by Penny Duncan
I hope that you join us at Bee Crafty! Again, have a great weekend and thank you for stopping by.
