Default Show me how you used tied ribbons?

I looooove the tied ribbons in my scrapbook kits, but I almost never know how to use them. Usually looks like I just stuck it somewhere because I didn't know how to use it.

I usually try to bury them into a flower cluster but I often end up deleting them because they don't look right. Here are a few pages I left them on. lol

Yep... it basically should look like you just stuck it somewhere. LOL!!!

Stuck somewhere with something 'hanging' from it... just layer the object (keys and charms work great for this) under the knot in the center.


To pretty-up a tag, wordy bit, 3x4 cards, photos or element... as a decoration. They look nice attached to the top of things, especially.


Tucked underneath things like buttons, flower clusters, and elements...


I've even used tied ribbons almost like a foliage element when a kit doesn't have a large variety of leaves:

I like to layer them sometimes, stick a button on top, and add a tag:




Apparently this is something I do quite often...haha



Did it again here...I should try being more original sometime:



Holding something (anything) on a page - like a photo, word art, etc

I love ribbons and I can hardly resist using them I try to use them whenever I can and I guess I use them in various ways. Most often I use them "on top" of a card because they look so cute:







Other times I like using them on top of picture frames:







And, of course, I use them in clusters behind a flower.

You probably have more than enough inspiration by now, but here are a few pages from me. I use those bows all the time!
