Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog Hop - May Ribbon Club


Good morning blogging friends! Happy Mother's Day to all of the moms out there and to all of the wonderful women who are like a mom to someone!!  I want to say a very special Happy Mother's Day to my Beautiful mom---Love you mom and I hope you have a Wonderful Day!! ♥

 Today, is the Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog Hop for the month of May. 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 Pink and Black ribbons included in the May Ribbon Club Click HERE for more details.

If you are following the order of the blog hop you should have just come from Bonnie'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 altered a little container and filled it with some goodies and then I designed a matching card.


I love the assortment of  pink and black ribbons in the May Ribbon Club!  I thought the ribbons would be perfect for a large ribbon loop flower.  I cut the ribbon in four different lengths--9'', 7-1/2'', 6'' and 5'' (and four piece each).


To create the double loops I hot glued each of the ribbon ends to the center of the ribbon as shown.


Then I layered the double ribbon loops and glued each layer creating the base of the flower.


Next I added the black ribbon.


More pink ribbon.

 

To finish off the flower I added another layer with black pattern ribbon and a button to the center.


For the card I made another ribbon loop flower but it was a little smaller and only had two layers of the ribbons.


I used S5-040 Floral  Doily Accents, S5-041 Floral Doily Motifs die templates and ES-008 Garden Delight M-Bossabilities™ Folder from Spellbinders™ to create the die cuts and embossed panel.  I also used Soot and Pop-Tone Razzle Berry cardstock from Discount Cardstock and black rhinestones from Recollections.

Now to continue in the blog hop you need to hop on over to Patti's Blog and check out her fantastic project!

Thank you so much for stopping by today and I hope you enjoy the Really Reasonable Blog Hop!! Don't forget to visit the RRR Store and check out all of the beautiful ribbons, lace and trims!

I hope you have a wonderful and creative day!

Hugs & Smiles,
