50th Birthday Card

Hi Everyone- JulieK here!

I have a super fun birthday card to share with  you today.
I haven't done many "boy" cards- and even fewer "men" cards, so when my husband asked me to make a 50th Birthday card for one of his Poker buddies, I was a little nervous- but I was also up for the challenge.
I asked my husband if he wanted it funny, punny, serious, or if he had a particular sentiment in mind.
He had no idea....
so we came up with this together.


Even though it's a "man" card, I still had to use my 3 Girl JAM Crinkle Ribbon.
I used some Holly Berry, London Blue, and Sunflower
along with some cut outs and some print and cut from the Silhouette Store.

Arf! Arf!

We'll see tonight if he thinks it's funny-
or if my Hubs will have to look for a new place to play poker!

Make sure to link up your recent Birthday projects at our challenge blog.
The current challenge is "Anything Birthday- with Ribbon"
You have one more week!

A Melon Thanks

Happy Thursday, 3 Girl JAMmers!  It's Julie O, from Muddy Paws & Inky Fingers with some late week inspiration for you. I recently needed a thank you card, and thought this summertime inspired card would be perfect for what I needed.

Isn't she the sweetest? I used lots of the beautiful Lipstick crinkle ribbon, part of the Pink and White Bundle, found in the 3 Girl JAM store.
Here's a close up of the ribbon, Vintage Button (also for sale in the store), and the sentiment.

I hope you liked today's inspiration. For more details about supplies used, and more projects using 3 Girl JAM products, please visit my blog.

The Journey Framed Wall Art

Hi Friends! This is Abby with ScrappinAbby and I have a really cool project to share with all of you today. Using some leftover items from another project, a Dollar Tree (store) frame and some of the yummy 3 Girl JAM Crinkle Ribbon , I've created a beautiful (I think..lol) wall art piece for my craft room. 
 Here's a short video that shows you the frame up close along with the crinkle ribbons I used...


Here you can see that I've used some of the Antique White crinkle ribbon to hang my frame. 
The background for my frame are some strips of paper bags I had leftover from another project. This is why I keep my scraps...you can always use them for another crafty project. I love this stamped sentiment from Tim Holtz.
Love love love how the beautiful Purple Passion crinkle ribbon accents the flower cluster and drapes off the bottom of the frame. The frame itself was a gold color. I simply painted & sanded it a bit to give it the distressed look. 

Here's a closer look at the yummy crinkle ribbon....




I love how this project turned out & I can't wait to hang it on my craft room wall. You can use the 3GJ Crinkle Ribbon for so many crafty purposes on one single project which is one of the many reasons why I love it so much. 

Thanks for stopping by the 3GJ Blog today and for letting me share another ScrappinAbby crafty project with all of you. 

Don't forget to stop by the 3GJ Store and pick up some yummy crinkle ribbon!!

Happy Crafin : )
