It’s a new month and with it we have a spectrum of colorful goodies at our crafting disposal! Just for the month of June, we’ve put together custom color coordinated cardstock bundles, are offering individual spools of ribbon from our Fundamentals collections, discounted select accessories, and even created a brand new stamp set, the My Acrylix® Be a Rainbow. For complete details, visit our Create the Rainbow page here.
There are so many different ways to use ribbon in crafting. We put together a few fun samples of projects featuring several of the ribbons included in our Create the Rainbow special to get those creative wheels turning, if they aren’t already 🙂 . Take a look and then share with us, in the comments below, how you are using ribbon in your crafts.
Ribbons make perfect little pennant banners
These little banners are easy, cute, and can dress up all sorts of celebrations. Simply double up the ribbon around a piece of twine, adhere with a glue dot, and dovetail the ends!
Embellish other embellishments
Add ribbons to clips and other embellishments. This can be a great way to tie metallic embellishments into the color palette of your projects! (These cute clips, and others, are part of our Create the Rainbow sale, so get them while they’re hot!)
Use your imagination!
How fun are these fishies? To create them, we wove two different colors of shimmery ribbon around a square of cardstock—even their eyes are fashioned from our adhesive Black & White Dots (also part of our Create the Rainbow sale) !
If you’re getting crafty with ribbon, tell us all about it below! We’d love to hear where your creativity is taking you!

Nice ideas for ribbons! As always, great ideas from CTMH!
Love the fish!! Such a neat idea for the ribbon!!
Wow I love these ideas and the fish are so cute! Thanks CTMH
I’ve just done a cute layout with strips of ribbon down the side instead of patterned paper.
What a great idea Lauren! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Love the ribbon fish
I plan to make a few of these wonderful fish for a project using Post Card Perfect paper and card stock. They will be a super addition to the project. Thank you for the super idea!
