Really Reasonable Ribbon August Blog Hop: Golden Grove Botanical Card Folio
Hello, Ribbon Lovers! It’s time for another fabulous Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog Hop. You should be hopping over from Karen’s lovely blog. This month, we are getting ready for fall with the gorgeous Autumn Harvest Ribbon Club Assortment. These luscious ribbons were the perfect playmate for the Golden Grove Botanical Card Folio that I’m sharing with you today.
Just look at all these wonderful autumn hues.
Golden Grove Botanical Card Folio
Kaisercraft Golden Grove is the perfect partner for the Moss/Cream Plaid Ribbons in this assortment.
I added a 1/4″ spine to this 5″ x 7″ top fold card base, then loaded this Golden Grove Card Folio up with paper pretties and luscious ribbons.
Golden Grove Botanical Card Folio: The Ribbon Cluster
This is a triple bow cluster. I guess these gorgeous ribbons made me go all bow happy! The base layer is a double loop bow tied with 5./8″ Moss/Cream Plaid Ribbon. Then I tied a second double loop bow with 3/8″ Kiwi Checkerboard Satin Ribbon. This adds just a touch of shimmer to the bow cluster. Next, I tied a third double loop bow with Natural Burlap String. This adds a great rustic feel and texture to the bow cluster. Finally, I pulled some yellow posies from my stash and hot glued them in place.
A Peek Inside this Golden Grove Botanical Card Folio
Pockets make the perfect tuck spot for tags, sweets, gift cards and other fun surprises.
A snippet of 5/8″ Moss/Cream Plaid ribbon peeps out of this small pocket.
This large pocket is decorated with a small tag that I’ve topped with a cute tag/burlap string/button combo.
Hold this Moss Green/Cream Ribbon Closure in place with Scor-Tape. The mini folio measures 3.5″ x 5″. It’s a lovely size for small photos.
Wouldn’t this make a pretty autumn birthday card?
The inner pocket holds a lovely tea bag and still has lots of room for a gift card or personal note.
