Really Reasonable Ribbon April Blog Hop


Good morning, Blogger Peeps! I am guest designing for Really Reasonable Ribbon again! It is time for the April Blog Hop, which starts at the RRR Blog

You should be coming to my blog from the Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog. (For the complete blog list, scroll to the bottom of the post.) After visiting me, hop over to Ginny's Blog next!

Here is a peeky at the RRR April Ribbon Club Assortment


This is not really "my" color combo, however...I just purchased some papers in just these colors! Guess what?! I can use the paper NOW instead of hoarding it, like I usually do!


I found a yummy collection of Authentique papers at my local store a month ago! These are "new to me" and so pretty. I totally adore that image! This is a larger card, 6" x 5" instead of an A2 size. I love this larger size. It's just a tad bigger. The issue is making sure to have the right size envelopes! Since I tend to need a padded mailer, those come in 5" x 7" which work great!

I created a border with the Coral Rose Swiss Dots Grosgrain and Theresa Crochet Lace



I used the lovely Delicate Stitched Satin Aqua to make my bow. I added a bit of Ivory Burlap String and some paper flowers.


I stamped on the inside of the card with some stamps that are either brand new, or older and had never been stamped before! {I know, I know!}

Now, hop over to Ginny's Blog next!

Here is the RRR Blog Hop Order in case you get lost!
