We were asked to use the Really Reasonable Ribbon' July Ribbon Club set to create a "Summertime" project. That was a breeze with these pretty ribbons! :)
Two things that remind me of summer are picnics and lazy day activities like flying a kite. I based my card off of this pretty designer paper with a picnic blanket and kites.
I simply trimmed down the 6x6 paper and attached it to my card base. Then I created a kite from coordinating designer paper (scored with my Scor-pal), bakers twine, and cake pop sticks. I used four different ribbons from the set to make the tail extra pretty!
Here's a closer look at the kite so you can see how 3 dimensional it is. :)
Your next stop on the hop is sweet Linda's blog.
