For those who are not familiar with Scrapbook Steals: it is a fantastic deal-of-the-day site that features designer scrapbooking supplies, some even brand new releases, at a huge discount (hence the "steal") at 9am and 9pm MST. You have to be fast, because they often sell out quickly! There are also awesome card and layout sketch challenges, and seriously the most sweet, sincere ladies you could ever "meet" for friendship and inspiration. Can you tell how much I love it?
So, Kristy, the Mojo Mama, sent me a *TON* of ribbon to work with for this posting. Seriously. If you buy the steal today, you will *not* be disappointed. You could make about fifty bajillion super cute ribbon clips with this steal. I love how American Crafts expertly matches the colors and patterns of the ribbons to make putting them together a breeze. A Summer breeze, in fact. (amiright? ;) Here are some quickie teasers of my projects:
Another feature I enjoyed about this ribbon is that the color palette is perfectly suited to just about any summer collection you already own. If I can buy a product that allows me to use the alarming amount of paper I already have, that's a definite plus in my book. For my featured projects I used Echo Park's Summer Days collection, and it matched splendidly.
Be sure to head over to the blog to check out the rest of the pictures of the projects, and a special How To'sday tutorial on ribbon-lined hair clips. And did I mention a giveaway? Indeed, I did!
If you would like to win this card, featuring 5 clippies made with the Summertime Ribbon, you will have two chances to win. 1.) Just leave a comment on this post. Piece of cake, right? Then, for an extra credit bonus entry, follow my blog and leave a separate comment on this post telling me you have done so. Awesome!
Thanks so much for visiting; be sure to stop by Scrapbook Steals and say hi!
