Ribbon Matching the CS
 

Hi all, I have a question for anyone who has these ribbons, how close to they match the color SU! says is the coordiating color?

Grosgrain:
Taupe = Creamy Caramel
Cranberry = Baroque Burgundy

Narrow Organdy:
Ivory = US Vanilla
Wine = Baroque Burgundy

I'm putting together an order for my Madison swaps and how close they match kind of decides which direction I go with my swaps.

TIA,
Stacy

I'm not sure about the others, but I just got the cranberry grosgrain ribbon and it is lighter and brighter than the baroque burgundy paper. I paired it with real red and it looked nice and Christmasy.

That's what I was afraid of, the ribbon color not matching the paper/ink as closely as I want/need it to. I'll probably have to change the idea a little.

Ssummerer - Would the cranberry grosgrain match Rose Red cardstock? Or is it too bright and well...red?

Thanks for your help,
Stacy

I ordered the narrow organdy in wine and it matches the baroque burgundy perfectly!!

Awesome! I can make a small change to the design and the wine ribbon would work. Thanks!
