Ruffle Edge ribbon flowers........



Our lovely DT member Sasha made this beautiful card using Ruffle Edge Sheer ribbon.  The flowers were also made with the ribbon aren't they pretty? If you'd like to try these here are Sasha's simple instructions;

To make the flowers you will need approximately 15cm (6inches) of ruffle edged ribbon, fold the ribbon in half width ways, so that both ruffle edges are brought together.  Do running stitches along the full length of the folded edge, then pull to gather and secure with a few back stitches.  Now join to form the flower and attach to your card.

So simple and yet so pretty!!!  Why not have a go yourself, we'd love to see your designs!
