Hi and welcome to the Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog Hop. I've had a secret for a few week's now that was "hush hush", but I am guessing you've already figured it out. I have been invited to be the August Guest Designer at RRR and a Ribbon of the Month DT member. We wanted to kick off the celebration with a blog hop and a terrific giveaway. You should have arrived from Gini Cagle's lovely blog.
If you just happened to be visiting my blog, go to the Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog to begin the hop. There is a wonderful prize package up for grabs and the rules of the hop.
Now for my project. I made a card using beautiful Mays Art Ribbon, available at Really Reasonable Ribbon. I can't say enough about Mays Art Ribbon, it is exactly the same on both sides so your bows turn out perfect. If you are a ribbon lover, you'll do cartwheels over it!
Close-up of my bow:
And now for a little bow lesson 101...I had no idea about this until recently and can't believe I didn't figure it out sooner. If you want your bows to have the pretty "v" ends, simply fold your ribbon in half at the end and snip them in a "v".
Here is a list of the hop order:
