Ribbon Lacing

Remember sewing cards or lacing cards? I had them as a
child.  My children have them now.   They were pictures with holes that you
“sewed” a shoe string in and out of to outline the image.  I LOVED THEM. 
They were entertaining, helped with hand-eye coordination and kept me
busy.  That childhood activity was my
inspiration for today’s projects.  I
laced ribbons through paper.  That is it! 
Easy-peasy with a nifty result!

 
Directions: Punch, pierce, poke, or cut paper and lace your
ribbon!

For the HAPPY HOLIDAYS WREATH simply lace ribbon through 2
circles and sew buttons in the space between the ribbons.  Tear the edges around the wreath and matte it
on patterned paper and again on a raw chipboard square base.

This ribbon lacing idea can be used on any paper
crafting project!  I used it here on the
following scrapbook pages
