October Rudolph Days

Just popping in quickly this morning with my entry for this months Rudolph Days Challenge. Once this is posted I'm off for a few days away. I found some gorgeous wide ribbon in my local Costco recently and decided to make some cards using it. The ribbon is 2 1/2 inches wide, so makes quite a statement. I cut the ribbon to length and then placed around some white card before adding a sentiment to a base card and then adding the piece with the ribbon. Quick to make so I made 5 of each to add to my collection this year.





Thanks for taking the time to look and your kind comments which are always appreciated.

What gorgeous ribbons, and making a feature of them like this is the perfect way to use them. I didn't realise Costco sold anything so fab!

Hi Sue,
Happy Rudolf Days.
Oh how I love these cards and you have created so many too.
Never thought of doing that with the ribbon.
Love this idea and the beautiful designs.
Have a nice time away.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.

Great way to batch bake! You have so many to make as you make for your Mum and Steve's Dad...right?

I love the look of these and wrapping the ribon on the white card first, was a great idea.

Thanks for taking part in the October Rudolph Days
Challenge.

Catching up on your blog Sue after being away on holiday. I love your Costco ribbon cards, they’re so pretty. I think you may have made some before which I admired.
I hope you enjoy your time away.
