Using Stampin' Up's Wide Ribbon for Home Decorating

I need your Help!  The Grandkids always knock these curtains down going in and out the French Doors to the deck.  I decided to use Stampin' Up's Wide Ribbon to solve the problem.  Since my walls are RED, yes they are Red I am using the Cherry Cobbler wide ribbon to accent my sheers.  What do you think, (1) tie them in the back and have a straight ribbon for the front OR tie them in the front and let the tails hang down??  Email me:  sandyengland@embarqmail.com and let me know which you like.

Another idea for the wide ribbon is to use them behind picture frames and give a nice professional look to your hanging pictures.

BIRTHDAY WISHES

Sometimes having a very dark background for a card can be very attractive.  Here Chocolate Chip cardstock is combined with the Elegant Bouquet Embossing Folder to provide the background.  Fun Flowers Bigz Die and the Big Shot are used to give us the Pink Pirouette Flower in the corner accented with a Pear.

Four Squares

Pizzazz and Bashful Blue Cardstock team up to make this pastel card.  Stamp sets are Thoughts and Prayers, Oval All and Four Squares.  Also used are the Jewel tiny pearls, ribbon and the Framed Tulip Embossing Folder.

Medallion

The picture does not do this card justice.  It is a very rich looking card by Tashana Lundy.  Cardstock is Pear Pizzazz, Garden Green and Rich Razzleberry and DSP Pear Pizzazz In Colors.  Ink is Garden Green and Versa Mark.  Other items used include:  Clear Embossing Powder, Top Note Bigz Die, Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder, 1/2 Stitched-Poly Ribbon of Pear Pizzazz, Jewels Basic Pearl and Rhinestones and Eyelet Border Punch.  The Stamp is background stamp Medallion.

Uncharted Territory

Not too many light houses here in the state of Pennsylvania but I love this card by Janelle Meyer.  It reminds me of the U. S. Coast Guard from which I retired a few years back.  I'm a red, white and blue gal.
The stamp set is Uncharted Territory and the Cardstock is Bahsful Blue, Night of Navy, Poppy Parade, Whisper White and DSP Pattern Designer Series - Poppy Parade.  Ink used are Bashful Blue and Night of Navy and Markers are Night of Navy and Poppy Parade.

Upsy Daisy

The Technique used here is Faux Silk.  Baja Breeze and Soft Suede combine to make for a nice combination.  Cardstock used is Baja Breeze, Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, and Very Vanilla.  Natalie Eldridge used Anywhere Glue Stick, Basic Pearls, Big Shot, Blender Pens, Dimensionals, Modern Label Extra Large Punch, Seam Binding, Sponge Daubers, Square Lattice Embossing Folder and Tissue Paper to make this elegant card.

Build A Blossom

You know I love Elegant Eggplant but did you know Sincere Salutations is one of my all time favorite Stamp Sets?  Love this combination.

Even though Apple Blossom Stamp Set is retired I am still showing this card as I really like using Fun Flowers Die with the Big Shot.  This card was received in a swap and using Old Olive, Blushing Bride, Whisper White Card Stock.  Also used is the Frame Tulip Textured Embossing Folder.

Sweet Centers

The sky is the limit is what I call this card.  Using Stamp Set Sweet Centers and Teeny Tiny Wishes this card is light and airy.  Pacific Blue and Bashful Blue provide for a pretty sky.
