Now it's great the way it is but I want to jazz it up a little bit more. And so I want to add some pink ribbon. Now again we've been using pink in some of the other portions of the invitation. This is a pink ribbon and it actually has little dots, little pink dots on top of it. So it just gives it some extra texture. So I'm going to size the ribbon. So here we have, it's going to go to this point here. Just so the two ends meet, you don't want to overlap too much. It's going to be difficult for this ribbon to stay in place unless I put some glue on the back of it. So I'm going to use my handy dandy little glue stick. Like I did with the paper invite, you keep your finger sort of behind the glue stick, hold down the material and you go outward with your glue stick so it doesn't come creeping back on you. We're going to apply this right on top. Now it's important, let's see where the middle portion of the invite is going to be. There, there's where I'm going to put my embellishment. I just press along, I'm going to put this along the middle portion of the ribbon and I'm just feeding it along and turning the box around as I'm feeding the ribbon on there and you just tap it and it just sticks right on place, very nicely, it's very easy to do and it really gives it a little extra detail that makes it look extra fancy. Again it gets people very excited about the event. And now that we have this we want to cover this up, I'm going to put a little embellishment on top of it. So I'm going to add a little bling bling like here ring right on there. Glue stick doesn't work so great on here to add it because again we're going on fabric. We're using that ribbon and so I'm going to use again my little fabric tape and I just need a little piece to add to the back of it. I put it on my crystal. Again these crystals can be bought at the craft supply store along with the ribbon. They have all different types of ribbon. We just attach it right there and there we have our invitation. It looks very snazzy and here is one that I did before. It looks just like it. See it took me no time.
