My most requested tutorial is for the looped ribbon accent I include in a lot of my projects. Just like the one above.
It may look a bit complicated, but it's actually quite easy.
A little Scor-tape and your favorite ribbon and you are good to go!
I've put together a little video for you today to show you my process in detail. I hope you'll enjoy the show!
Now that you've seen me in action with my ribbon technique, how about I share with you all the other amazing tutorials that the team cooked up just for you! Grab a cup, get comfy and prepare to be inspired by all the tips & techniques these talented ladies have to offer!
