Really Reasonable Ribbon June 2023 Blog Hop: Bright Summer Colors

Hello, Friends!  Welcome to the Really Reasonable Ribbon June 2023 Blog Hop!  You should be coming here from Gloria’s lovely blog.  You can find the complete blog hop list over on the RRR Blog.

Our theme this month is Summer and/or Bright Summer Colors.  Summer is the perfect time to enjoy a treat from the freezer, so I created this cute popsicle themed Slimline Card using 1/2″ Checkered Ribbon with a Stitched  Edge.  This ribbon comes in several colors, and is a great choice for summer cards.

White Chrysanthemums are such a cheery addition to this summery card, and they provide a nice contrast to all the bold colors in the card design.  Amp up the playful feel by adding  some White Spiral Stamens and Bead/Berry Sprays to the flower clusters.

TIP: Create a colorful ribbon belly band behind the card title.  First, apply 1/2″ Scor-Tape across the center of the yellow die cut panel.  Leave the ends long so that when you attach the ribbon to the tape, you can wrap them around the back side of the panel.

A Peek Inside

The inside of this card carries out the frozen treat theme with a gift card pocket and an ice cream cone greeting.

Now hop on over and see what summery goodness Cheryl has prepared for you to enjoy. Be sure to finish up the hop over on the RRR Blog where you can answer Bonnie’s Question of the Month and enter the drawing for a $10 Gift Certificate and the free digital stamp set of your choice.
