Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge #7 - Ribbon, Lace and Twine, Oh My.......


Good morning and welcome!  I'm here this morning to bring you a brand new challenge for Craft Hoarders Anonymous.  Show us your fiber side.  Use ribbon, lace or twine on your project.  Dig into your hoard...I know  you have some ribbon, lace, twine, floss, string or yarn and create a project using that!  As long as you have something in the ribbon family on your project you will be able to play along with us!

Our sponsors for the month of May are Really Reasonable Ribbon and Sin City Stamps.  What a wonderful combination!





Now here is my project:




This is a 3" X 3" criss cross sleeve and tag made using G45 French Country  6" X 6" Patterns and Solids papers.  I used Spellbinders A2 Scalloped Borders One to cut a design along the top of the tag. It worked perfectly for the size of the tag; how lucky was that!    My lace and yellow ribbon  is from the April Ribbon Club Assortment from RRR!  I love it and am really enjoying the quality of the ribbon and lace included.  

To see what the rest of the design team has created for you, click on their names below to be taken to their blogs.    Also we have some Sin City Stamps guests participating in our blog hop and their names and blog addresses are also listed.  We are so happy to have them join us so when you visit them, please leave a comment for them as well.  Your comments makes our day.  

Now you need to get busy and create something wonderful using your ribbon, lace and twine! Once you have your creation; link it up over at Craft Hoarders Anonymous blog.  All the rules are posted on a page at the top of the blog.    You might just be picked to receive the ribbon from RRR  and the $20 gift card from Sin City Stamps. That's right, you could take home both of these wonderful prizes!  I can't wait to see what  you come up with!  Now you have until midnight on May 18th Pacific Time to enter this challenge. Good luck to all of you.

Beautiful card with the lace edging along the pocket! I also like the pull-out tag for your message to be written on... great idea. Have a good week!

Hi Glenda,

I LOVE this project! The bit of lace around the criss cross sleeve is perfect. I just might try to make some of these. Thank you for the inspiration.

More importantly, thank you for always coming by to visit. Your comments mean a lot to me. I really enjoyed making the vase. I plan to make myself one and I've been saving some jars so I'm going to try to make some on them too.

Hugs,
Kay

Love your tag and sleeve, Glenda, love the colors as well! More pieces of left over abandoned crafts used up right, how fun! Hope you have had a good day!

This color combo is off the hook fabulous! I would never have thought to combine those two colors together, but it's perfect. And the lace is such a lovely touch. Your stamping is always sheer perfection, too! Love, love, love!

I love how you used a different fold for your card, and it is so lovely with the stamped images and ribbon. So glad to be a part of the CHAC blog hop today.

This is so pretty Glenda! I love the crisscross pocket design and the lace edges.

Now, that clock stamp and sentiment are just perfect together! I like the pocket design for the tag -- great for slipping in a gift card, too. The tiny lace trim is just perfect!

Fab tag and pocket - lovely use of those texty papers, and the kraft of the tag inside and the pocket watch works beautifully with the red. Great inspiration for the Craft Hoarders challenge, thank you.
