Create: All types of paper craft projects, including scrapbook layouts, altered items (i.e., gift bags, tags, etc), and cards using the color combination and ribbon. We want to see innovative ribbon ideas and techniques as well as traditional styles. We encourage projects for any theme, such as: birthday, love, sympathy, wedding, thank you, graduation, Christmas, fall, Halloween, and Thanksgiving. We love to showcase projects that use patterned paper, stamps, and other embellishments, so create to your heart’s content!
