When I saw this cheerful patterned paper, I instantly thought of quilt squares and decided to add my own faux ribbon quilting. I took a matching piece of patterned paper and ran it through a Xyron adhesive machine to put adhesive on the back side. I then laid ribbons over the sticky part to create a piece of ribbon "fabric". Then, I flipped the paper back over and cut strips that matched where I wanted to add the ribbons and adhered it to the base paper. I inked the edges of my papers with the Orange ink (Morocco) and then sprayed a little bit of the Tangelo Fireworks onto my craft mat, and painted the edges of the quilted ribbons to make them blend a little better. I also sprayed the sequin heart with the Fireworks to match the color scheme.
