Unity-Friends with Flair

Hello Friends with Flair.  Today I used Shine On, by Unity.  I just loved this stamp set with all the cute lamps and sentiments.
Stamps: Shine On, Unity
Ink: rich cocoa, Memento; antique linen,
vintage photo, Distress ink
Paper: Crafty, DCWV
Embellishments: ribbon, My Minds Eye, metallic pens, Sakura
Tools: Spellbinders, Sew Ribbon; Fiskars border punch
Have any of you seen this new tool?  It is Sew Ribbon by We R Memories.  I have been interested in the Sew tool, but it is always out at my store, so I looked at this.  I wasn't sure how it would work.  I have bought tools in the past that were so difficult to use that I find myself forgetting about them.  This ladies is not one of those tools.  This one is the scallop Sew Ribbon.  The template is double sided and your paper fits between the layers and held my strong magnets.  The cutting tool fits in the grooves, push down and voila, you have cut the paper.  Repeat until you get to the end and remove template. They provide you with plastic ribbon threaders, attach to end of ribbon and start threading through the slots and you have a nice ribbon scallop.  Easy peasy!  This is a tool I will keep using.  I can use ribbon on a card without all bulk. Win, win.
Have a good weekend.
