Hello fellow stampaholics! Are there any ribbonaholics out there??? I have a group of customers (that spend lots of money) who are asking for some new and creative ways to use their SU ribbon. I have a few ideas but was looking for more. Does anyone out there have any ideas or can you point me in the right direction of where to find some?
I know there are alot of creative ladies on this site so please reply!
Happy Stampin', Jennifer :-)
I have yet to try this, but I love the wire made into a buckle with grosgrain. I have bought the buckles, but not made my own. (Beate, I too am wire challenged!) There's a great card in the gallery using the new Tag Time set. Also, I have found that making a small knot ribbon with scraps and then adhering with glue dots is great. But it seems my favorite thing to do with ribbon is collect it :lol:
I've been taking my white grossgrain and applying classic ink with a makeup sponge to get more colors (and a more exact match) than SU sells. It's nice to have a closely matching ribbon for my project!
I have a friend that makes beautiful ribbon flowers. There are a ton of books out to tell you how to make sunflowers, violets, roses, etc. from organdy and grosgrain. That might be something to pique their curiosity.
