It is amazing what ribbon can do. This wreath had no focal point and looked rather sad. So out came my bowdabra here and a roll of red ribbon here - bowmaker and ribbon to the rescue!

Four ribbon loops either side of my bowdabra some magic cord here in the centre and the bow was complete.  I simply attached it to the wreath with some wire.  What a difference it made,

I was in a bit of a rush, running late on Sunday.  I had promised to decorate two wreaths by adding some ribbon.  But I was due for a family meal 150miles away in Oxfordshire with the wreaths and I was still in Dorset. So my assistant came to the rescue and took the photos while I completed the second wreath. Thanks Tony.

Tracey and Paul like their red ribbons, here are the two cards they made for the Top 5 Christmas ribbon Challenge.

I do love all the embellishments you guys use.  they make the cards so tactile and fun. This washing line ribbon has been a top design over the years. Super dupa santa Tracey and Paul.

Very stylish card, I love the little red bow that compliments the little bows on the silver tree - clever idea Tracey or Paul.  I do think that red has been the top selling colour of Christmas 2011.

It was great to catch up with Tracey and Paul at the Hobbycraft show back in November - wow that feels a long time ago. We hope you both have a fantastic Christmas and that you will join in with our challenges next year. DO NOT panic I am not going to launch another challenge yet.  I have one in mind but not until Christmas has past.

That will get a few of you guessing!!!!
