When I received my package of gorgeous ribbons, I just loved the way they looked all lined up. So I took my inspiration from that and made a fun little ribbon banner card. Each pennant is made from about a 3" strip of ribbon, folded over and secured with scor-tape and then folded around a piece of thread, which I threaded through two pierced holes I made in the designer paper. The stamps are from the Wings of Love set by Verve and I matted the heart on the coordinating Wavy Hearts die, then used a clothespin to attach it to my banner. The background is made of torn scraps I had in my drawer. I added some book-style washi tape, too, dabbed on a little watered-down gesso, sponged on some black ink and added a dusting of glitter. Oh, and distressed edges... for some of the interior distressing, I misted a little water on the paper and then lightly scratched the paper until it started to peel up. So simple, but such a neat effect. Okay, I think I covered it all. Now it's time to let your fingers do the clicking...

Amazing Julee. Gorgeous stamping and wow oh wow are your ribbon banners incredible.
Those ribbons are beautiful! Love your card - Love the heart stamp too! Really like the idea of using the clothes pin to attach the ribbon bow.
Hi Julee, I am new to Verve and only recently joined Mojo Monday...guess I missed the connection. But I actually stumbled upon this blog hop after seeing posts on Kim O'Connell's and the Ribbon Carousel's blogs. I am sure glad I did. I am very impressed by this release and all the gorgeous projects featured. Can't wait to wind up the hop and head on over to browse your other products. I love these sentiments. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful cards, especially your use of ribbon. Simply stunning. Thank you for sharing.
