Lovebug Challenge!

Kimi, owner of Lovebug Creations, has asked me to step in and host a few challenges over at the Lovebug Lounge on Facebook.  April Showers bring May FLOWERS...
So..this month's challenge is to show us how you make flowers out of the ribbon and mesh sold by


You can easiliy make this rumpled flower using Rumple Ribbon and thread and a needle.
Here is a tutorial I wrote for it a few years ago:


I used Craft Glue Dots ® to secure the rumple ribbon leaves behind the flower.
Glue Dot Lines ® are a great way to make rumple borders.  After laying down the adhesive strips, use rumple ribbon to create a ruffled edge on that adhesive area.


Even the inside can use  a bit of Rumple Ribbon to decorate the inside layer. 
Also, it brings in Crazy Coral colored ribbon to the inside!

Make a flower...and show it off at the Lovebug Lounge this month!
And remember...this weekend is a co-hop with KaDoodle Bug Designs!
