Cheesecloth Ghost by Jamie L.

Friday, October 23, 2015

Hey everyone,
Jamie here with a cute halloween ghost.



The ghost is pretty easy to make and super cute when done. All you need is some black felt, cheese cloth, liquid starch, scissors, hot glue, and 5/8" red wired satin ribbon. You will also need something for a form to sculpt ur ghost (i used a balloon and a vase).




You soak the cheese cloth in the liquid starch than drap it around a form or base to make the shape. Let dry over night. Remove from base/form. Cut eyes out of felt and hot glue into place. Make a bow with your ribbon and hot glue into place. All done!

Thabks for stoppin by and have a great day!


Pumpkins! by Melissa Craig

Friday, October 16, 2015



Good Morning!  Melissa here with a fun project that is cute and so easy to make!

I like Pinterest like a lot of us do.  There are some pretty great ideas on there and it can be a wonderful source of inspiration.  I was just perusing some pictures on there when I came across these pretty pumpkins someone made out of scrap pieces of wood.  You can find it here.  Well, I'm a papercrafter - not a woodcrafter, but I really wanted to make these so I set off to do my version.

Using a cut file by Lori Whitlock for the boxes and the stem from a different cut file, I created my pieces.  Inked the edges with Spiced Marmalade distress ink.  I then glued these boxes together to create my pumpkins.  I found a pretty fall foliage bunch at that Dollar Store that I cut apart to add to the top and then finished off with Double Face Satin Ribbon - Copper.



I love how these turned out and now they look fantastic on my desk at work.  My son saw them and said "those are Minecraft pumpkins!"

Thank you for stopping by and please feel free to visit me at my blog.

Gift Box with Jamie

Wednesday, November 26, 2014

Good Morning!  Jamie back with you today sharing a fun gift box embellished with one of my favorite ribbons, the Golden Olive Double-Faced Satin Ribbon!  There are 196 colors available in widths up to 2-1/4" on the online store, and you can even special order widths up to 4"!  


This box opens up on both ends to reveal a box inside, 

which is perfect for stashing candies in!

Here is the tutorial:
1.  Cut the boxes and mats then fold the boxes on the score lines.
2.  With the smaller box, place adhesive on the four side tabs and adhere them to the box sides to form its shape.  With the large box, place adhesive on the four tabs then adhere the long sides to them as shown.
3.  Adhere the smaller box inside the center of the larger.
4.  Place adhesive on the sides and the coordinating tabs then adhere those sides to the box and fold that tab over within the smaller box.  Do this for both sides. This will hold the center box in place.
5.  Adhere the mats in place and place your goodies in the box.
6.  Once mats are in place, I punched a small hole in each side so that I could run my ribbon through.
7.  I push the ribbon up through the holes and pull the ribbon tight as I close the box.
8.  Cut out the Thank You sentiment and adhere to a tag.  Note: I cut my Thank and You apart so that I could move them to fit my tag better.  Tie a bow on the box and then tie the tag to the bow.




The ribbon really gives the box an elegance!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Holiday Gift Giving Ahead! Pinky

Wednesday, October 15, 2014

It's getting to be that time of year again- time for making those
holiday gifts and preparing for November and December. 

Why not create a beautify handmade recipe book for that loved one
who adores your cooking or wants to save their own recipes!
For this Recipe Album I used a Clear Acrylic album 
then instead of tying it together I used a giant paper clip that I attached
a beautiful silky ribbon bow from Ribbons Unlimited. 
The paper clip is perfect for adding more pages too. 
I really just wanted it to POP and it does!

Everything about this is handmade and will be treasured. 
I cannot wait to see the face of the recipient.

Tic Toc Cheer Bow Tutorial

Friday, August 8, 2014

Good morning!  Jamie back with you today to share a fun and easy way to create a 
Tic Toc Cheer Bow without having to use heat bond!  


Here's what you'll need:
Two 14" different colors of coordinating cuts of 1-1/2" ribbon
One 2" cut of 3/8", 1/2", or 5/8" coordinating ribbon
Zip tie
Hot glue gun/hot glue
Scissors
1/2" double sided tape

I am using the Lime/White Polka Dot Wired Ribbon and the Lime Princess Glitter Ribbon for my 1-1/2" cuts and 5/8" of the Apple Green/Lime Satin Ribbon for my center.

Here's the tutorial:
 1.  Cut 14" of each of your 1-1/2" ribbons.
 2.  Add 1/2" double sided tape to one end of your bows.
 3.  Join the two bows together.
 4.  Once your ribbons are together, form a loop with one side of the ribbon.
 5.  Form another loop with the other ribbon side.
 6.  Join the zip tie lightly around the center between the loops.
 7.  Play with your ribbon until you have the loops equal and the ends where you want them. Pull the zip tie tight and clip the end off.
 8.  Fold the glitter ribbon tail in half and cut the ribbon at an angle.  Place double sided adhesive on the other ribbon end where you would cut a matching angle.
 9.  Adhere the glitter cut to the ribbon tail, with the straight edge closet to the bow.
10. Your ribbon should look like this now.
11. Fold the ribbon tail in half and cut your angle in.
12. Your ribbon will look similar to this now.
13. Grab your coordinating center piece.
14. Place hot glue on the back and adhere you center ribbon on.  Wrap your center ribbon twice tightly around the center.  Cut your ribbon to fit on the back again and hot glue in place.
15. Add your bow hardware and you are ready to use!


Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Scrapbook page with handmade floral accents by Grace Tolman

Wednesday, March 12, 2014

Hello friends. Today I’m going to share with you some ways I sprinkle some ribbon goodness into my scrapbook pages. "Selfies" are all the rage now and I decided to print some of mine up for this “on-trend” scrapbook layout. 

Two of my favorite go-to techniques to add ribbon to a scrapbook page are to stamp with it and to create a handmade accent with the trims. In this page, I stamped some sentiment words on the satin ribbon using Stazon. This allowed me to personalize my accents to match my theme.

The second one was creating this beautiful yellow flower with ribbon. I was inspired to create it to match the rose necklace I was wearing on two of the photos. Matching it with something in my photo creates cohesiveness in the project.

Instructions:
 1. Gather your supplies.

 2. Cut a circle big enough to fill the inside space of the doily from pattern paper. Repeat the process one more time and adhere the circle shapes to two doilies.

 3. Adhere the decorated doilies on two opposite ends of the cardstock base.

 4. Cut out 11 ¾” strips from Yellow grosgrain ribbon, add adhesive on the back and adhere to the cardstock creating a frame around the doilies.
Add the photos on the center of the layout, overlapping some of them over parts of the doilies.

 5. Stamp sentiments on the Pastel green satin ribbon. Use an ink like Stazon to make sure your stamped design transfers perfectly on the smooth surface of the ribbon. Cut the ends into notches. Adhere to the bottom part of the photos.
Add stars in between the sentiment phrases using adhesive dots.

 6. Punch out a small circle (about 1 ¼”) from pattern paper. Adhere a large glue dot over it. Cut out 3” strips from Yellow grosgrain ribbon, fold in half and adhere to the circle (with adhesive). Fill the circle with folded ribbon pieces until it resembles a flower. Add a button (threaded with twine) on the center for a finished look. Adhere to the layout.

7. Add the title with stickers and cut out the printed journaling into strips and adhere to the layout.

Thank you for joining me today and I can’t wait to see how you use these techniques on your next project. Happy Creating!
