Monday Challenge #12 - Pleating Technique

Hello ladies, how was your weekend? Here in New York the weather is so yucky...it's cold and raining. Not a fan of the cold, gotta tell you. Anyhow, congratulations to all our winners...and a big thank you from Lori and the crew for hanging out with us last weekend. So many amazing LO's that were just jaw dropping. Thanks again.
Well, today I have something new on my end. I've seen a lot of LO's and cards lately with the paper or ribbon pleating technique...and I think it looks lovely. I googled for a tutorial and came up with this ... a tutorial in case you need a little help like me ... and this was my result:
I pleated paper and ribbon as well. So, let the pleating begin and make a LO or card using this technique. Upload or link to the comment section here on or before Sunday evening for a chance to win a cookie jar treat.
Thanks for all that played last week, and the winner was Jeni J. Isn't it amazing how she managed to use 14 pictures? Kuddos for you Jeni. Here's her LO:
Hope you all have a lovely week; and I hope you keep enjoying our croptober-fest.

Thanks, Besse, I don't know what I'm more excited about - winning or seeing my LO on the blog! Jeni

Here is my layout for pleating ribbon challenge. I used the bigger than a breadbox kit for July 2009, and added the Bo Bunny ribbon that I machine stitched. Thank you for this great challenge!

Here's mine. I pleated the orange paper from our fancy pants kit in June.
