Bow Easy Part 2

I am going to include a video today that I found on You Tube. Her name is Jerri and she does a very good job of showing how easy it is to make perfect bows every time.




Now that you see how to make the bows here is that trick I mentioned in Part 1.   The trick is to show that the bow looks like it was tied onto the ribbon on the card when it really is attached with a glue dot.
See the sheer ribbon on the left side of the card? I have placed this here and taped it on the back of the bamboo colored cardstock. Do this all before attaching to the green card.


Here is the trick. You take a piece of thread and tie it around the ribbon where you are going to place your bow. See how it crunches up? That is what gives the illusion that the bow has been tied onto the flat ribbon piece. You would trim the threads and then......


Add the bow with a glue dot. Of course I made the Bow with the Bow Easy too!!!
A very quick and easy trick but very effective I think.
I will be back tomorrow with all the details on how to make this card. I have another little trick in the making of this card.
 Hint: It has something to do with the ornament.
See you then.
