Need advice with ribbons
Can anyone refer me to websites or any advice on how to use different ribbons on your cards? Like the different kinds of ribbons and different ways to tie them, bows, knots etc. I have no idea how to use the few ribbons that I have but I think they would look so pretty on cards.

There are so many ways to use ribbon it would be hard to list them all.
I suggest going to the gallery and searching for the keyword ribbon. You will come up with TONS of samples using ribbon. Hope that helps!

Thanks Whitney for the tip. I am also looking for the "how to" with ribbons. There were way too many results to go thru when I tried on SCS. I guess I'll try googling unless someone else wants to help me out.

I don't have an example, but you can use a brayer and ink pad to customize white ribbon to the color you want if you don't have the right color.

OH!! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
I have been collecting ribbon for years and have a bunch of it. I never use it... maybe I am just scared of it. But, ladies, with all these examples I am going to start using it all up so that I can buy more. Ribbon is sooo pretty...
Thanks again for all your work and in finding all the examples too.

41. Fold small leftover piece of ribion in half and attach it to the side of a strip of paper with a brad to make a "handle."

Wow!! How about using it to embelish the hole in a bookmark?
And of course almost all of these great ideas could be used for fibers and raffia.....
