Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog Hop - January Ribbon Club

Good morning blogging friends! Today, is the Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog Hop for the month of January. The RRR Design Team Members and Special Event Design Team Members will be showcasing the Monthly Ribbon Club.


This month there is a beautiful assortment of Red, Pink and White Ribbons and Trim included in the Valentine's Mix January Ribbon Club Assortment. Click HERE for more details.

If you are following the order of the blog hop you should have just come from Joanna's Blog. If not and you just happened to pop in for a visit please click HERE to start the blog hop at the Really Reasonable Ribbon's Ramblings! Blog.


For my project I designed a banner for Valentine's Day. I used Valentine's Mix January Ribbon Club Assortment from Really Reasonable Ribbon and S5-028 Nested Pennants, S5-029 Nested Lacey Pennants, Nested Hearts, LF-003 Donna's Alphabet die templates from Spellbinders to create the banner. I also used CL-03605 Harlequin Script Background Stamp with Worn Lipstick Distress Ink to create the background on the pennants.


I used several of the ribbons in the Valentine's Mix January Ribbon Club Assortment to create a fringe at the top of all the banner pieces. I places the ribbons through the loops in the S5-029 Nested Lacey Pennants die cuts and glued them to the backside of the pennants.


Here is a close up of the L pennant. I used Nested Hearts die template with Spellbinders Jewel Tone Premium Craft Foils to create the hearts and then I lightly sanded them to reveal the silver undertones.


For the O, I used some of the white crochet lace trim from Valentine's Mix January Ribbon Club Assortment and made a little rosette. Then I added a pink button to the center.


Across the top of each pennant I added some Pearl Jellie Dots from The Rubber Cafe.


I used LF-003 Donna's Alphabet to create the word LOVE. I inked the die cuts with Worn Lipstick Distress Ink and then I added Scrap Happy Sheer Glue and You're So Fine Glitter Diamond Clear Cool Highlights from The Rubber Cafe along the edges of each letter and then I applied Glossy Accents to each letter. I also added a few pink paper roses.
