cute ghost

A little word to show you a way to use your ribbons.  I draw a ghost on a orange sheet and then I Cut it. I chose a Halloween Ribbon from Crafty Ribbons and I tried to organize different lengths to see the motive.

isn't cute? I had a swiss dot ribbon as a bow.  

It will the first halloween card for my grand son.

What do you do for Halloween this year?

Have a great time,

Christelle

Look my smart bow-tie!

I have a lovely friend who loves bow-ties. And I thought of him when I made this little one with raspberry ribbon from Crafty Ribbons.

Isn't charming?  I used my teddy bear as model because it's a surprise. He doesn't know yet I made it for him. I will saw him in late september.

I used raspberries ribbon but with any sweat treat ribbon it could be fun.

I am in hurry to see him with on his shirt! It could be also a brooch (I put a pin beside) or a hair clip. Just some tips for you.

(You could see also a saddle stitch ribbon.)

Seaside Mixed Media Mini Pallet

Sarah here with a mixed media project using the Fresh Stripe and Ric Ric ribbons.

If you would like to see the full process you can watch my video here.

I painted a mini wooden pallet from a mixed media kit with gesso and added texture with sand paste and art stones. 

Once dry I added paint and inks to colour the background. 

Using 3D gel medium I attached the pieces of net to the pallet, the photo was layered with papers cheese cloth and hessian to add lots of texture.

 Shells, flowers and sequins added to the nautical theme and some Ric Rac added more texture the sandy background.

I added a sweet quote on a chipboard heart sticker and added some Fresh Stripe ribbon for an added touch of cuteness!!

More wider matching Fresh Stripe ribbon turned my pallet into a little piece of wall art.

Thanks for visiting, do check out the Crafty Ribbons Facebook group for competitions and inspiration and have a great day!

bow and moustache!

In France, fathers'day is on 19th of june, so I prepare this special card for a beautiful day!

Not always easy to make a masculine/transport card (this is our new challenge for this week HERE) but I think I am quiet right with bow and moustache.

I used tartan  and sheer organza  ribbon for bow and fathers day ribbon.

Hoping, it's help you!

Have a good day,

Christelle

A music Program

I made this music program for my jazz concert in Toulouse. I used music ribbon and sheer organza ribbon to do a bow. You could see more pictures there.

Have a lovely crafty weekend!

A red pouch

 A friend of mine likes red, so I made for her birthday a special pouch. A face with hearts fabric and ric-rac,

 the other with a red polka dot pocket finished by bias binding gingham and a little bow. It looks like an apron!

A mini check gingham ribbon closed by red pearls to use zipper. And that all.

 Hoping she will like it...

Have a nice day, 

Christelle
