Craft Small Award Ribbons

These gold metal award ribbons for 1rst, 2nd, and 3rd place are 4" long.

       To craft these small award ribbons you will need: decorative paper, fancy ribbon, cardboard, tacky white craft glue, either number stickers or number candy mold (and oven bake clay), acrylic paints, and tiny cupcake or candy liners.

       First cut out a circle from the cardboard and center your number in the middle of it. Your numbers could be stickers or molded out of oven bake clay. If you're using clay numbers bake them according to the instructions on the manufacturer's packaging. 

       Above, I layered the numbers on top of glittery gold paper. Then glued this to cardboard circles. After letting this dry, I cut the gold paper ruffle from tiny, metallic cupcake liners and pasted these to the backside of my award. Lastly, I cut striped grosgrain ribbon to paste on the back of each award. If you want to use this little craft idea to make SWAPS you will need to sew a tiny safety pin to a circle of felt and glue this last onto the back of the award ribbons.

       Below, I layered my numbers on top of a scrap paper and then glued this to cardboard shaped flowers. Then a cut and pasted patriotic ribbon to the backs of the place awards. 

These patriotic ribbon awards are 3" long.  Make a few for your
