Question about ribbon tying

[scrapin_pam]

I hope I put this in the right place. I was wanting some different ways to use ribbon on cards. I've seen some really neat tricks with ribbon is there a website or somewhere on Splitcoast to learn how to do them?
thanks,

Did you have a specific method in mind? I'm not sure I've seen a website or blog focuing on this but would love to hear from others if they know of one.

I tried a google search, but every site that came up was for one pretty card (on someone's blog) that has ribbon added. It would be neat to have an entire page of ideas like....

ribbon bows
ribbon knots
ribbon stripes
ribbon through eyelets
ribbon through buckles

hmmmmm maybe we could ask Beate to post a few pictures in the resources section.

That site was awesome! Thanks so much! I will surely be using some of those ideas to add more ribbon to my cards.

This is along the same lines (sorry for the hyjack!) but I have some of those ribbon slides from the HPH set and there are some that are just rectangular instead of rectangular with a bar to thread the ribbon over. Just how are you supposed to use THOSE? How do you guys use it with ribbon since there isn't a bar? KWIM?

I am also challenged when it comes to bows and what to do with ribbons. This is a great website you shared. thanks.
