3GJ Challenge No.24 Back To School With Ribbon-Teacher Treat Box

Hi Friends! Abby here with ScrappinAbby and I'm really excited to share my project for 3GJ's Challenge No.24 Back To School With Ribbon!!

For this project I used five..yup that's right...five different yummy Crinkle Ribbons from 3GJ. I created a treat box from a sheet of card stock for my daughter to give to her principal. Since this is Kaley's last year in middle school, I wanted to make something that she could give to her since she's not only an amazing principal who took care of my baby girl for 3 years, but also a family friend.



I also have a short video that shows you the completed project up close : )

For this project I used the following 3GJ Crinkle Ribbons:


I thought it would be fun to cover the wooden knob I used with some Holly Berry crinkle ribbon. 






You can see more of the same crinkle ribbon peeking out from under the lid of the box. I used some clear card stock to create the window so you can see the paper apple I made which can be removed and filled with some wrapped candy as well : )
 Each side of the box has a different image from the G45 Place In Time collection...


I used some of the Goblin Green on my dictionary page apple to mimic a leaf...






This was such a fun and easy Back To School project to create that featured a wide variety of the yummy 3GJ Crinkle Ribbons. I love how the five different ribbons, each from a different bundle, really work so well together. It's always fun to mix up the bundles a bit and see what you come up with. 

I hope I was able to inspire you to participate in Challenge No.24 and show us your amazing project using the FAB Crinkle Ribbons from 3 Girl JAM.

Thanks for stopping by the 3GJ Challenge Blog and happy crafting!!

Kraft with Ribbon CHALLENGE ~ "Teacher's RULE"

Hey there Crafty Blends and 3 Girl JAM-ers

DT Member Jessica B from Jessica's Craft Shaque here and today, I am posting a Back to School Card for a Teacher!

The current challenge is:
Kraft w/Ribbon
That's right we want to see ALL those awesome projects using Kraft card stock and ribbon!!!!
(pssst....play along to win an awesome prize from 3 Girl JAM)

I used a Kraft Envelope and some Kraft Card Stock.
I recently grabbed up some fun bargains at "My Favorite Stamp Company" and couldn't wait to get inky with these sweet set.

I love using my 3 Girl JAM Crinkle Ribbon as a closure on my altered journals and this influenced my decision to use it here...

I am a huge fan of Paper Piecing and wanted to try some of my very neglected paper stacks.
I decided to use Greens and Golds/Yellows from my stash of 3 Girl JAM Crinkle Ribbon since those are our School Colors here in Amherst, OH.


I won't bore you with too many details, but if you have any questions, please feel free to hop over to my Personal Blog and say Hi!  This took lots and lots of fussy cutting, a little bit of Zig Glue, and some TH Distress Inks to finish it.  

I am happy that it turned out as I envisioned it.
I just hope my sweet daughter's Kindergarten Teacher loves it on their First Day of School next week, too.

And, would it be a post from me if you didn't see Mini Bows and Pleating on my project, right???
LOL
I used the 3 Girl JAM Bow Maker 

to make the bow on the card and the fun bow in the Teacher's Hair


Stop by 3 Girl JAM to place an order for this Beautiful Ribbon - You won't be sorry to have it in your Hands as you Create!


If you need more inspiration, be sure to peek back at all the Work the DT Members have been sharing since the start of the challenge!
They are Top of the Class!

Altered Journal Challenge No.23 Kraft with Ribbon

Hi Friends. Abby here with ScrappinAbby and I'm really excited to share an altered journal I made for Challenge No.23, Kraft with Ribbon.

Here's a short video that shows you the journal up close along with the yummy Crinkle Ribbons I used for the project....

I used Purple Passion from the Royal Bundle and both the Latte & Cream from the Coffee Bundle for this journal. I love how well these three colors work together.






 
 
I had so much fun altering this journal and the FAB 3GJ Crinkle Ribbon makes this look so elegant I think : )
 
Be sure check out all of the details surrounding Challenge No.23 HERE.
 
 
Thanks for stopping by the 3GJ Challenge Blog...now head into your creative space and work on your Kraft with Ribbon project...not only do we want to see your beautiful project but you'll have the opportunity to win some amazing Crinkle Ribbon for yourself : )
 
Happy Craftin!!
