Crafty Monday Faux Ribbon Weave Card

 Crafty Monday – Faux Ribbon Weave Card

Sneak Peek New products 

Welcome back to another Crafty Monday!

Today I’m sharing a few of the lovely things I received recently (happy mail is always such a joy!) and then we’re creating a beautiful Faux Ribbon Weave Card together.

This technique looks like an intricate woven ribbon design, but it’s actually very simple to make. It’s a fantastic way to use up Designer Series Paper scraps, mix different patterns together, and create lots of texture on your card front.

The best part? You can keep it elegant with black and white papers or have fun mixing lots of colours and patterns.

For today’s card I’m using the Sincerely Noted Mix & Match Ephemera Pack and some black-and-white Designer Series Paper, finished with a little sparkle from the Sunset Sparkle Sequins.

How to Create the Faux Ribbon Weave

1. Score and fold your card base.
2. On the 5 cm x 14 cm Basic White panel, mark every 2.5 cm along both long sides.
3. Add a small amount of liquid glue along the first marked line.
4. Lay your first DSP strip across the panel.
5. Continue placing strips at each marked line.
6. Now weave the second set of strips over and under the first set to create the ribbon weave effect.
7. Secure with glue where needed.
8. Trim any excess from the edges.
9. Attach the panel to the 14 cm x 4.5 cm mat.
10. Add the layered piece to the card base.
11. Finish with an image from the Sincerely Noted Ephemera Pack and a few Sunset Sparkle Sequins for a little shimmer.

This is a wonderful technique for using up scrap strips of Designer Series Paper. Try mixing different patterns from the same collection or even create a rainbow weave using lots of colours.
