Ric-rac ribbon and tiny punches!

Another technique I enjoy doing is with ric-rac ribbon and ds tape to make a border or to outline an image. Cut the desired length of ds tape and place on cardstock. Lift off backing and place ric-rac ribbon down the centre or the edge of ds tape. sprinkle with choice of colour glitter and gently rub on ds tape. Shake off excess glitter and carefully remove the ribbon, again gently rub in contrasting glitter. The width of border can be adjusted by using several lengths of ds tape side by side. When completed, trim off excess card. I have also used a tiny butterfly, flower, teddy and clover punch, and lots of other shapes and used this technique, just align each punched image along the tape and repeat the process!
