Wow those are some incredible projects! What talent!
IN LOVE with them all!!!! Cheryl Walkers dress from is MY fav!
Beautiful work, ladies.
WOW!!! htere are so many great projects herre. Such talent and diversity. If I have to pick a favorite, I think it's Jasmine Ford's card set as she did so much crafting and different designs. Fabulous!!
OMG, how can one choose? Love the ubrella, the ribbon lady, the Christening bib, those soaring air balloons, the Thank You card set annd the dress form… not that the others are less gorgeous, it's just that your head spins as you keep looking at it all!
WOW now that is what you call amazing!!!!! I loved each and every entry but I would have to pick the "hot air balloons" as my favorite…Thank you for this increditable inspiration!!!!
I really loved the desk set by Laura Cox.. I love the colors and the ribbon looks really nice with it..
These are all terrific but I really like the desk set by Laura Cox. Great job.
I love all of them but the card set is my favorite!
All the ladies did beautiful work but my favorite is the Desk Set made by Laura Cox. I could actually use it, not just look at it!
Great projects. I really like the desk set by Laura Cox. Nice colors and just a great project.
OMG! you mean with all these wonderful projects we can only choose 1. WOW!. Ok, my pick is ———————————The Chirstening Bib. It is fabulous.
Love the dress form by Cheryl Walker!
These are all amazing projects, but the one that jumped off the page at me was Karen Hanson's Hot Air Balloons! Wow! They are fantastic!
Wow! These are some great, great projects, but the one that really got my attention is Karen Hansen's balloons. AMAZING!
gorgesous projects. Love the color and texture of the silk ribbon. They are my favorite.
truely amazing talented people.
My favourite would have to be Cheryl – Dress Form
well done crafty ladies.
How great is the desk set by Laura Cox….so pretty and useful….
So Talented….My favorite would have to be Karen Hanson's Hot air balloons. Stunning
Wow! So much talent, so hard to choose….however….I love May Park's design. All of her work is beautiful and creative. Also inspirational!
Seriously, how are we supposed to choose one favorite????! I am not going to choose a favorite, but i have to say Karen's hot air balloons are amazing! The mobile and powder puff album are adorable! Love Jasmine's card set! Laura's notebook gift set is a fabulous idea! And the fancy umbrella card is beautiful! In fact, ALL of the projects are beautful!
It is so hard to decide. I have several that I think are beautiful and used the ribbons that they were given to create something beautiful. My picks are not in order other than the order that I saw them. The Dress Form, The Christening Bib, The Umbrella, the Ribbon Lady and finally the Powder Puff Mini Album. I know that Im probably only supposed to pick one, but how is that possible. Now the Ribbon Lady can make her final decision. Good luck with that!!! LOL And cudos to all the crafters!
My favorite is the umbrella card! I just love it.
All the creations are wonderful and I like them all! But my Favorite has to be Karen’s Hot Air Balloons, they are simply fabulous!
Everyone did a wonderful job. My favorite is the Desk Set made by Laura Cox.
Cheryl Hutcherson's is my favorite!
Cheryl's Layout is the best.
My favorite is the layout by Cheryl Hutcherson. The colors on the layout are gorgeous and the little girl is absolutely adorable!
What stunning artwork! My favorite is Charity's memo board. Gorgeous embroidery.
So many wonderful designs in this challenge. Everyone did do a wonderful job. My favorite is Lynn Ochs with the Ribbon Lady. The ribbons for this project are very obvious and highlighted well.
My favorite is the Dress form by Cheryl Walker
Oh I love the dress form by Cheryl Walker….that took some time to make all those bows….awesome…
Congrats on such beautiful projects to all the ladies!! My two favs are the dress form by Cheryl Walker, and the memo board by Charity Becker.
beuatiful job to all that entered!!!! I LOVE the Ribbon Lady, not sure if we were to pick too, but I just had to leave a comment on my favorite as well
Hugs to all,
Cheryl Walker
Cheryl Walkers Dress form is unique.
Charity Becker's memo board is my favorite. It is pretty, and useful. This was a very tough challenge as far as I was concerned.
They are all amazing. My favorite is Cheryl Walker's dress forms.
I love so many of these projects… I have to say though for one of the best projects for ribbons it would be…
Dress form by Cheryl Walker.
The hot air balloons are great. Those are my favorite.
My favorite is Cheryl Hutcherson. The layout is so pretty with the ribbon flowers and the subject is adorable.
This is so hard to pick a favorite but I will go with
Charity Becker's memo board.
Awesome job on all of the projects. If i could pick two: the first would be Laura Cox's desk set (colorful and practical) and the Karen Hanson's Hot Air Balloons–whimsical. I can see the blood. sweat and tears that went into these projects.
Jasmine ford- the gift box with cards was my favorite
all the others were awesome too.
The lampshade!! OMG what a great job on that!!
Thanks so much, Anita!
My favourite project is the Thank you card set. It's so elegant. Really hard to pick one favourite though, there were many that I really liked
Whoa…what a great bunch of awesome projects. Glad I don't have to to choose just one, Ribbon Lady. They're all super!
These are all such amazing projects, but my favorite would have to be the lampshade by Sassy!
When I look at all of the projects, I am blown away by the differences we can all come up with, with the same ribbons. They are all amazing!
wow, how do you choose?? I think my favourite is either the dress-from, the mini-album, the airballoon, the ribbon lady, the teacup, the notebook gifty set of maybe the the umbrella or… no, I can't choose! They are all amazing! Thank you all for sharing and good luck with picking your favourite ribbon lady!
I love the adorable Lamp Shade, by Sassy!!
Thanks, Ashley!
Very nice work by all the designers. I have always loved working with ribbon, especially silk and would have to say the dress form by Cheryl Walker shows how the ribbon can be worked into whatever you want, great job. My next pick would be the ribbon lady, nice work. Love all the ribbon that was used and all the designs.
Wow, lots of fab projects! My fave is Karen's Hot Air Balloons, so very fun!
I love the dress form by Cheryl Walker
All the projects are amazing but really love the note box set by Laura Cox. Love the colors and how she used the ribbon.
I like the altered box and also the ribbon lady.
Oh my goodness. I've narrowed it down to two, but I honestly can't decide between Karen's Hot Air Balloons (amazing!) and Monique's mobile (precoius!). Can I vote for a tie between these two amazing projects?
Wow! Hard to decide – love Jasmine's cards, but Darsie's bib is just a treasure. They're all great!
A lot of great projects. I have my choices down to the following three: Jasmine Ford's thank you gift card set, Charlotte Zweigoron's umbrella, and Connie Riley's teacup album.
good luck to everyone!

Wow, tough choices here because they are all amazing in their own way! But, making the choice of top fav…I'd have to say it is the amazing Umbrella card! Close runner up is that amazing Christening bib! Beautiful use of the ribbons in both!!!
Great work, ladies! If I had to pick a favorite, it would be the hot air balloons that Karen Hanson did or the necklace by Denise Sanchez.
I adore the hot air balloons. Beautiful details.
wowwy wow!!! THese were amazing!!! I loved the christening bib and the hot air balloons, but I just loved them all!!! Awesome job everyone!
So many beautiful entries. Lots of talented ladies here. My absolute favorite is the scrapbook layout by Cheryl Hutcherson. I love her beautiful flowers she made.
Lots of great projects! Give people beautiful ribbon and they create beautiful projects. Thanks for all the inspiration ladies! I'd have to say my favorite is the Powder Puff Mini Album that Abby made.
Wow - amazing talent shown here again! Shout out to Jasmine's thank-you cards – so beautiful, and Laura's desk set! Great work ladies!
You mentioned one fo the requirements was to use all the types of ribbon. I'm assuming any projects which did not meet this requirement, if any, were excluded. If not, we have no way of knowing which projects, if any, did not meet this requirement.
Anyway, I really like a number of the projects. One is in so NOT my style, but to their own. If I have to pick one, I'll go w/the set of Hot Airballoons.
WOW! Amazing projects!! I love Jasmines card set and Laura desk set, beautiful work ladies!! My favorite is Karen's hot air balloons. Great job!
Oh WOW! Those are fabulous projects and kudo's to all the design team. My favorite is the dress form by Cheryl Walker. I think it is amazing. I can put my much less atractive copy on a card or in a scrap book! I love it!!!
They are all wonderful! So hard to pick, but I think my fav is the umbrella.
all are very cool and a hard decision….but i think i particularly liked darcie's christening bib! so cute!
sandyh
Tuff tuff tuff decision to make but after careful consideration I have to go with the dress form by Cheryl Walker but a close 2nd was the air balloons, I am totally into air balloons right now
I absolutely adore Jasmine Ford's thank-you card set! It is so elegant and well-designed.
so many wonderful projects! If I had to pick a favorite, I think I would go with Abby's album.
They're all beautiful, but I love Lura Cox's note set.
Wow, really hard to choose. I really liked the hot air balloons and the teacup album- a lot of work!
Hard to choose! The card set is amazing, but I'd have to go with the hot air balloons, as they can be hung for everyone to admire!
My goodness very talented ladies here…My favorite is the lampshade, I have seen nothing like it before, I love how she has taken an everyday item and made it into a work of art…Thanks for sharing!!
Amanda
Thanks, Amanda!

I love them all! I want to vote for them all!!! I'll use my one vote though for the hot air balloons created by Karen. They are all great projects though!
All the projects are beautiful! My fave is the hot air baloons!
I LOVE Karen's hot air balloons! Those are just awesome!
All of these are awesome but I think I love the thank you card set and the hot air balloons the best. Hard choice!!
The hot air balloon is my favorite, but they are all quite lovely!
All projects are so beautiful, I love their everything, very talented ladies made them. but I think my fav is the thank you card set.
Good luck to everyone! There are so many great projects and I'm not sure how I ended up in such a talented group, but I do know I enjoyed working with the lovely silk ribbons from May Arts. It was hard to stop fondling them long enough to get started on the project, ha ha. I'm glad I'm not the Ribbon Lady–I don't think I could pick. I really appreaciate all the inspiration I received from today's post!
Fantastic job by everyone. What beautiful projects. If I had to pick, Karen's Hor Air Balloons, Jasmine's Thank You set and Laura's Notebook set would be my fav's.
Sassy's lampshade gets my vote!
Thanks, Lydia!
Great work, beautiful colors! Hoping to win!. Thank you
Enjoyed looking at all of them, that's for sure. To pick just one is hard but I would have to say the project by Laura Cox. Thanks for the opportunity to vote.
Yowza!!! Great projects—my favourite are the hot air balloons!
Wow! That is some amazing work! The hot air balloons and the thank you card desk set are my favorites.,
Wow! They are all beautiful. My favorite single element is that golden flower in the scrapbook layout at the top of the post. Over all it is a tie between the umbrella and the bulletin board.

Love the little lanterns on your notebook Laura.
How can you possibly expect us to choose? These projects are all wonderful. What a great group of talented artists! If you put a gun up to my head, though, I'd have to say that I love the hot air balloons.

Wow those are some amazing projects
Beautiful, inspirational work!! Love the cards by Jasmine, the beautiful desk set, the amazing balloons and the powder puff mini!!
The all are exquisite, really everytime the entries are better and better. So many different types of entries. There is a reason when you scroll through you see the word WOW so many times. Love both sets of cards Jasmine's and Mays, but Laura's desk set is really great with the asian touches.

Connie Riley said it… It is hard to put this ribbon down to actually craft with it. If heaven came on a roll, it would feel like this silk ribbon! I am in awe of the projects submitted and will be wanting to CASE some of them!! I learned a couple of new tricks, too! What fun… thanks for having this challenge!
Adore the Thank You cards by Jasmine Ford. Lots of talent demonstrated on all the projects
They're all so beautiful. My favorite is the umbrella.
hard to choose—I'll go with the umbrella card
Amazing… I just can't believe all the beautiful projects!! The hot air balloons, are neat, the dress forms are so cool… the lady with the ribbon dress… I don't know… they are all really, really neat!
Somehow… I feel… I should have asked for more ribbon! hee hee… Every inch was used in my project, have to order some more!!! It was very pretty, and fun to work with, so soft and like someone else mentioned above, it was hard to quit playing with it and make something!
Wow! So much amazingness! I am in love with the silk!!! I think Abby Henderson's is my favorite. I love this idea and want to do it myself.

Just choosing one is very hard so I do NOT envy your job but I am stuck between the pillow and the powder puff mini album, so good luck to all the entries there is sooooo much talent here!
Oh these are wonderful! I am going to say Sassy's lampshade as it used so many ribbons. Then I would say the hot air balloons are wonderful as well -
