You should be coming to my blog from Ginny's Blog. (For the complete blog list, scroll to the bottom of the post.)
Here is a peeky at the RRR July Ribbon Club. It's another hot, summer-time color combo! This one is called "Citrus Assortment"!
These colors are way outside my comfort zone. They are bright, hot, and saturated. I am more of a muted, neutrals, red, and tan sort of girl. But, I am up for the challenge!
I had the new Graphic 45 Bohemian Bazaar papers on my desk, and realized they matched the hot colors of the ribbon! Happy day! I also had a been playing with banners for another project, and well....this is what happened!
I used the yellow and green ribbon from the July Ribbon Club to make my bows. Plus, I used a few bits of the orange dot grosgrain on the banners.
I had just purchased the green and yellow solid baker's twine last month from RRR, so I used some of that, too. The buttons are from Buttons Galore and they are in the RRR store, HERE. I think I used buttons from Key Lime Pie and Lemon Tart. (Great color names!)
