and a jar of wee bits of ribbon
that I can't bare to throw out!
So, in an effort to declutter, I decided to try and use them to make the thank you cards for little e's birthday pressies.
This is what I came up with
I made them like this:
Set up a word document custom paper size 9.5cm x 14cm
Type 'Thank You' in your chosen font, I used Gabriola.
Cut out the required number of pieces of card, 9.5cm x14cm, in a pale colour.
Print them out
Cut Coloured card to A6 size (10.5cm x 15cm)
Wrap a small piece of ribbon round the pale card (I stick it with double sided tape)
Stick pale card to other card.
Now you can leave it like this or make a wee bow to attach to the ribbon!
Cute little scrap buster thank you cards, done!
Now to write them...
Very cute way to use your scrap ribbon!

That is adorable! I have been thinking of just getting rid of my small fabric and ribbon scraps, but this makes me think that wouldn't be such a good idea. I'll have to try this out!

ReplyDeleteShiloh, yep they fit in a normal A6 envelope!

You seem very creative, you are like recycling unused ribbons. I like how you design your cards. Very unique and I really like what you have done.
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I love these!
ReplyDeletePurple is my favorite color, that's why I like this so much!
ReplyDeleteI think the designs are so simple. But i still
ReplyDeletefind elegance on it. The way it made is really impressive. Do you have other designs of the ribbon. They were so cute:)
