I am trying to use this red ribbon that says Friends are True Gifts. I am blocked!
I like the colors in this card, but I don't like how I added the cord or present eyelet.
There are also some trees stamped in Versamark on the bottom of the red card.
What can I do to fix this card??

hi! I think the cord is too small, there isnt enough "weight" up top. The eyelet competes, so I would take the cord and wrap it 4-5 times around just the green part, thru the eyelet around and around.(or no eyelet). Hope that helps you, I think you have a cute card, that ribbon is adorable!

I think this is cute! I agree with Tandra, the cord is too skinny, but I would not loose the present eyelet, it is too cute with this card! I wonder how it would look to the the ribbon and the cord switch places. Have the ribbon go thru the eyelet, and have the cord wrap around the bottom a few times instead.

Oooh Emily I like your idea!! Cord at bottom of green piece, and that cute red ribbon on top with a couple loose tails with more of the words showing.
