Handmade paper ribbons

Do you have the "decorative & frames" stamps of OBP?
I really love these border stamps. They are so gorgeous
I used them to make some paper ribbons to bundle cards

See how cute they are!

Many stamping friends in Taiwan asked me
about how to line up images...

I use stamp-a-ma-jig all the time
You can see many clips in youtube
Such as this one


So I took some shots as simple tutorial
My text are in Chinese. Hope you don't mind :)
