Several of our Creative Team members have a real flair with using Ribbon on their cards. I noticed that two of them used a gathering technique on the ribbon that really gives their cards a ton of dimension.
Notice that Samantha used her sewing machine and made a quick and casual gather for her ribbon (which is actually a strip of fabric). Samantha also frayed the edges slightly for a distressed look.
Here is a closer view of the fabric strip.
Kristie Larsen took another approach for a similar look of the gathered ribbon. She used Zots Dots (glue dots). Just gather and stick and repeat! No sewing necessary. Very cute.


Love, love the creative uses of the stamps that your team comes up with! And that shabby ribbon at the top is wonderful!
