Vintage Butterflies Ribbon cards

Hello everyone, sadly this will be my last post with Crafty Ribbons, but I have really enjoyed my time here.  So I decided to go out with a bit of a bang lol.  I have created 16 cards using the one-sheet wonder technique, only I used two sheets of patterned paper instead lol.  I am posting eight of these cards here, and to see the other eight, you will have to visit my blog at Ode to Paper :)  I know, how mean lol.

Yes, this post is very picture heavy, lol, but I think you'll find that it's worth the trouble :)

I am listing all of the gorgeous ribbons from Crafty Ribbons that I used in creating all 16 cards.


Vintage Butterflies-English CremeVintage Butterflies-Bikes CremeVintage Butterflies-French Creme,


Vintage Butterflies-English LatteVintage Butterflies-Bikes LatteVintage Butterflies-Keys Latte,



Vintage Butterflies-French LatteVintage Butterflies-Bikes CreamVintage Butterflies-Birds Creme,


Volcan Viscose Lace Creme and Chantilly Cotton Lace in Creme...wow, that was a mouth full!


I really did have so much fun creating these cards, and the one-sheet wonder is the perfect thing to jump-start your mojo :)


You can find all of the ribbons linked above in the Crafty Ribbons online shop.


And don't forget to join in the bi-weekly challenges for your chance to win some gorgeous ribbons!

Ribbon Ice Cream?!


Hi, Laura here today.

A few years back Ali (Crafty Ribbons owner) made some adorable ribbon cupcakes.  They planted a seed in my mind... what about a ribbon ice cream cone?  A few years have past, but the idea hung on and has now come to fruition...


The cone is made by pinning Swiss dot ribbon in 'tan and white' to a polystyrene cone.


It always takes me a long time to decide what flavour to pick when I buy a cone, and true to form it took a long while to decide which ribbons to use!  I settled on Raspberry ripple and used a collection of pink ribbon in both grosgrain and organza Swiss dots.


These were also pinned to polystyrene - I cut a ball in half to give me a scoop type shape.  As I pinned I twisted to give the look of ice cream from a Mr Whippy machine.

I hope you like this creation...  I'm quite hungry now... off for an ice cream I think!
