Guest Tutorial - Multi-colored Ribbon Tutorial

Today I have another special guest tutorial to share with you by our own Holly McMillen. I'm sure many of you are familiar with Holly's wonderful work and her previous tutorials from her blog. Personally, I feel blessed to have her as part of my team and have enjoyed getting to know her better since she has joined us!

Multi-colored Ribbon Tutorial
By Holly McMillen

First, pick your colors (two or three) that coordinate with your project/card.



Decide which is going to be your main color (in this case the rust velvet) and which are going to be your loops and tails. Cut your loop piece to approximately 6“. Cut your tail piece to approximately 5” (you’ll trim this later).



Set your main color and your tail piece aside for now. Take your loop piece and apply a small piece of sticky tape to the end and form a loop.



Turn your main color piece to the backside (if it has different sides) and apply a small piece of sticky tape to it. Adhere the loop onto the sticky tape. Next, take the ends of your main piece and tie a KNOT around your loop piece. You will need to twist it a little to get your bow loops to lay correctly.



Next, turn your tail piece into a inverted V. Place a small piece of sticky tape on the top of the inverted V and attach to the back of your previously made bow.



Now you are ready to adhere to your card!



Now finish your card!
