The Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge #SSS145:

Over on The Sweet Stop blog, they have posted the monthly sketch challenge and I decided to give it a try this month. I used a nice variety of products on my card and I think I kept fairly true to the design suggested (except for the color). Hope you like it.

My Really Reasonable Ribbon Project!


I love the appearance of things that are woven, so I decided to try to weave ribbon as my holiday project for Bonnie at Really Reasonable Ribbon. When I saw a styrofoam cube at my local dollar store I knew that is what I wanted to use for the base of my candle stand. Here is the result:



















I wove the ribbon on only one side of the cube, but you can take the time to weave all four sides if you prefer. (I used straight pins to secure the ends of the ribbons). After I finished the weaving I added some of the white pleated satin and the white crochet lace along upper edge of the cube. Here is a close-up of the front of the cube so you can see the ribbon more closely:



The ribbons I used for this project:

Red Glitz Ribbon (bow around candle)


(There is one additional ribbon that is sold out; my apologies)
