Good morning Peeps. It is a Totally PaperCrafts Friday again and my turn to host the challenge. I chose "Ribbons and Bows". Are you surprised? My DH isn't, he said, "Here you go again Linda with those ribbons. You have to think outside the box." So I thought outside the box, inside the box and around the box, then tied it all up with a ribbon!
I perched Wren on top of my Easter box. Isn't she darling in her bunny ears cuddling her little bunny? What about that cute little bunny peeking out from behind her shoe. They are just the shyest cutest little darlings. You can find her at Tiddly Inks.
I found this tutorial over at Splitcoast Stampers by Beate Johns. Her tutorials are so easy to folllow. If you would like to check it out, hop on over here. The only thing change I made is to cut slits wide enough for the ribbon to slide through on the top and bottom fold edges of the box. That allows the box top to be removed without having to untie the bow. The ribbon is visible on the inside the box top which looks real pretty when you take the top off.
Just take a few and click right here and you can hop over to the Totally PaperCrafts Challeng Blog so you can see what my on-so-talented Design Sistahs have tied up for you this week! You just may want to grab some ribbon and make up a beautiful design yourself. Stamp and Create is our most wonderful sponsor this week and the prize is a $20 gift certificate!! Hope to see you there!
Have a wonderful crafty weekend. I am having a crafty Saturday at my friend Kim's (Oak Pond Creations) house. Jeni (Flip Flop Creations) will be there too. Not sure what goodies we will be making, but I know Star Bucks coffee will definitely be a part of it!
Enjoy, Linda
