It is time again for a Really Reasonable Ribbon Challenge! The NEW Challenge is called "Things with Wings." Make a project that has wings on it , plus ribbon!
I knew right away that I wanted to use this NEW Graphic 45 Mother Goose paper for my "things with wings" challenge! I mean...Mother Goose...she has wings! I made a cute tag that can be used as gift packaging, a scrapbook accent, or even a door hanger! Add a "shhhh, baby is sleeping" message and you are all set!
I wanted Mother to have AMAZING wings. I fussy cut her and trimmed off her paper wings. I had some chipboard wings in my stash, so I inked them with Versamark ink, and then embossed them with embossing enamel. The enamel has gold flecks and glitter. I needed more glitter, so I used the RRR Satin Ribbon with Silver Metallic Edges for my double bow. I think this is the light blue, from the pastel assortment.
I glued the enameled wings behind the image and attached it to the tag with 3D foam squares. I decided to add a metal keyhole to the tag as well. I used some white paint to give the keyhole an "whitewash" effect.
I created some flowers and added more of the fun papers from the Mother Goose collection.
I wanted something fun for the bottom of the tag, so I made a "fringe" from the star printed Blue Mist Grosgrain. I simply trimmed small pieces of the ribbon into a flag shape and attached them to the back of the tag with Scor-tape. I needed some contrast between the star paper and the star ribbon, so I added a piece of Black Ric Rac.
I hope you enjoyed my Nursery Rhyme inspired tag....things with wings and ribbon!
