Ribbon Inspiration, Stamp Simply Style-Spring Wishes!

Bunny Folded Dinner Napkins-front view
It's that time again for The Stamp Simply Ribbon Inspiration! This week, Sharon is thinking spring! And what hops right along into spring time? Well, of course, bunnies do!  I first saw a folded dinner napkin bunny on Pinterest which had been originally pinned from Martha Stewart's site. Frankly, I could not follow Martha's instructions very well, but read one of the comments that suggested watching a you tube video that demonstrated clearer bunny napkin directions. I googled and found one! Boy, it was so much easier!


Bunny Folded Dinner Napkins-back view
Here a darling back view!  I added 1.25"silk ribbon of course and a stamped tag! After the folding was complete, I used a rubber band to hold together but not a tight rubber band! When I make more, I will just tie the ribbon to hold the folding together.  For the tag I stamped a sentiment from Spring Words, a new JustRite clear stamp set.  I used Memento Rich Cocoa ink, cut with a Spellbinders Oval die, and also rubbed ink on the tag front before adding that ringlet trim!  Are these just the cutest?  I love this kind of crafting! To use the dinner napkin, one will just untie that beautiful silk ribbon, unfold the napkin, and place on their lap!
