Hello and welcome to a new tutorial at last! I know, it's taken me ages to get back into the swing of things but I hope to have more newer tutorials soon and a bit more regularly too.
This Fabulous Friday at 5'o'clock (FFAF'ish!) shows you how you can change plain white ribbon into a colourful piece to be used on handmade cards and scrapbooking pages.
In the past I have shown you all how I dye ribbons using rubbing alcohol mixed with reinkers then heat set with my heat gun.
You'll find that tutorial here... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ad7QV46RLGg
These next photos show previously hand coloured ribbons and a finished card using them. PLEASE NOTE: items used in this card are retired therefore no longer available to purchase but there are many other products available you can substitued what I've used to create with!
Years ago I showed on an old blog how I did this however we no longer have that same width ribbon so I'm using the 1/4"/6.4mm wide crinkled white seam binding. If you have wider white ribbon, give it a go using it. I know some of us still have some that width though it's been retired by Stampin' Up! for some time now.
All you will need are the ribbon, a water brush or mini spritzer with water in it, a few colours of Stampin' Write markers that will blend well together. A heat tool if you want to dry your ribbon faster as well. Yup, that simple. Sit back and watch me blunder through my first video demo in ages. Bare with me as I've new software as well so am also getting use to that too.
And here's a creation made using Basic White Note cards for the base & envelope, Basic White layer stamped using Blushing Bride, Gray Granite & Cinnamon Cider ink pads, Stampin'Write markers and stamp sets Artfully Layered & Hello Ladybug (sentiment stamp).
Don't forget to decorate your envelopes & inside your cards!
til next time, remember,
happy stamping, colouring & creating!
