And hopefully it will stay in place as I randomly wrap away without creasing the BC in any way
! I hate it when I wake myself up at night worrying about how something is going to work (or not work) and I'm doing that to myself on this cake!!
It *IS* difficult ... here's one that I did: http://cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=1454112 .
The up-and-down ribbons are actually held in place by the black ribbon around the base of the cake. Holy moly, I had no idea how hard it was going to be to hold those ribbons in place while wrapping the base ribbon and not get fingerprints all over the cake. Oh well .... 2 outta 3 ain't bad! 
I have not done one like that before, but I can imagine that RI or BC would work just fine. I also would not randomly wrap around and around the cake. Wrap one time around and secure with your RI or BC. Then cut another length, even if it is the same width ribbon and go around again securing with another dot. I can imagine that taking the ribbon and wrapping around several times would eventually end up with creases no matter how hard you try not to.
I just wanted to update you guys that the BC icing dot worked perfectly!! I'm so sad I spent so much time worrying about attaching the ribbon. I did find that I could continuously wrap the ribbon and it worked better for me. I didn't attempt to get them to come together perfectly like in the picture--just random wraps. I let the icing crust overnight and then put the ribbon on with BC icing dots--so easy and simple! I'll post pics when it's all set up tomorrow. Once again, thanks for your help!
Just attaching a picture (pre-flowers)--Can't wait to see what it looked like after flowers were added--light green spider mums was the plan. http://cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=1699172&done=1
