Hmm...let's see if I can explain this. You start by punching 2 holes then take the ribbon and thread each end of the ribbon into the holes from the front of the cardstock. Then, from the back of the cardstock, push the ends of the ribbon through the opposite hole back to the front of the cardstock and straighten it up to your preference. Does this make sense at all? I don't know. If not, I can try and take some pictures.

I KNOW someone can post a tutorial, but I can try to tell you.

Punch two small holes in the card. from the front put one end of the ribbon in each hole.
Cross them in the back
Pull them up from the back in the opposite holes
Smooth the back out as much as you can *it's crossed so it won't smooth all the way flat, just make it neat*
Then trim ends to your liking.

Hope this helps.

Like I said, someone will come along with photos and maybe even a video.

OMG! That is my card! I can't believe it! I've never been referenced before in the Forum! Yep, I'm shocked & well, like the other two ladies said ~ that's exactly how I did it... and the card is very flat... I used the tools that came with my Making Memories eyelet setter to make the holes and the ribbon is the SU Gingham...
