I find that satin ribbons stick best, for me anyway, because they're usually a little thinner than grosgrain. :)Karen Motzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18298909599072236811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-361907864115081812.post-22004201173838294692010-07-18T14:12:34.993-10:002010-07-18T14:12:34.993-10:00Terrific card!

Yeah, I said liquid. It just dries super fast, but you can still scrunch up the ribbon to get that look. I haven't had any problems! For a loopier ribbon, I use a dry strip (I use Tombow Mono Adhesive) and get the ribbon the way you want it, then use the Beacon's to make sure it is permanent. Works great!Kelleigh Ratzlaff Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00230152442990770868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-361907864115081812.post-43680319332088379782010-07-18T10:13:51.734-10:002010-07-18T10:13:51.734-10:00Fantastic card Jen!

In my case, it didn't have anything to do with the humidity, it came down to the way I had ruffled the ribbon and the fact that I didn't have enough adhesive contact with the ribbon. As I lay the ribbon down, I am very careful to watch and be sure that there is a decent amount of contact with the adhesive . . . my ribbon ruffling, therefore, is a bit more skewed, as opposed to looking to be in a straight line. Worst-case scenario, I would add some glue dots to the underside of the ribbon where you are having contact-stickiness issues--I did that on the card I had the issue and it worked like a charm.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07885107799423767640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-361907864115081812.post-27108872238707612232010-07-18T00:15:36.332-10:002010-07-18T00:15:36.332-10:00Stunning card as usual!

Even sticky strip :( For this reason I'd never give one of these cards away, but they're sure pretty to make & photograph :)<br /><br />Lee xLeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00296011535967755153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-361907864115081812.post-7686742004822003942010-07-17T21:39:45.101-10:002010-07-17T21:39:45.101-10:00Ok, I LOVE that ribbon!

Of course it's drier than anything here, so I can't do the humidity test :DKaren Gironhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05483688677358160043noreply@blogger.com
