Ribbon Challenge # 1
28/12/2008
SORRY - THIS RIBBON CHALLENGE IS NOW FULL.
Would you like to take part in our first ever ribbon challenge?
Before our warehouse closed for the Christmas break our new Valentine ribbons arrived. We have 10 free bundles of ribbons to give away, each bundle will contain metre lengths of all the new ribbons (NOT on the website - yet!). All we ask in return for these ribbons are two valentine cards made from the ribbons. The ribbons must be used to create the card NOT just as a bow or a trim.
If you are up to the challenge, then send us an email to info@craftyribbons.com marked RIBBON CHALLENGE #1
The first 10 to reply will be sent an email requesting address details so we can send your free ribbons!!
Your cards will be posted onto our website and will also be on display at the exhibitions we attend in the UK and France 2009

Not sure how to make your parcels stand out this year? Why not go back to basics!!
Wrap your parcels in brown paper, tie a simple bow with red gingham ribbon. Add a final fab touch, by writing names in white ink on holly or ivy leaves.
Very simple but classic!
We have Red Gingham Ribbon in 5mm, 10mm, 15mm and 23mm a width for any size parcel. Now available on 20mtr rolls.
Good Luck

Rachie our warehouse manager (and Ali's baby sis) has finally gone on maternity leave! She only has a few weeks to go before the baby is born, but refused to stop working until Tony and Ali had returned from their exhibitions. It got to the stage where her arms were not long enough to reach the computer keyboard!! We gave her a surprise party today with lots of cake! Good luck Rachie x
