Hair Bow Tutorial

Supplies

Ribbon (wired ribbon works best but you can use regular, I did)

Lace

Scor-Tape

Twine

Bow Easy

Favorite Mini Magnolia's

Flowers

Wrap the ribbon around the largest part of your bow easy 8-9 times.

Cut a small slit in the center of the bow.

Cut on the other side too. Make sure you DO NOT let the cuts meet!

Tie some Twine in a knot inbetween the slits and pull tight.

Pull the bow off and start pulling apart your bow loops.

Pull the loops in all different directions.

Fan the loops out, if you want the bow to go all around.

Here's how it should look so far.

Hot glue the center to help keep it in place.

Place some Scor-tape on the back of your image. This circle is 1 1/14 circle.

Put your lace all around for the border.

Isn't it cute!?

Glue to the center of the bow.

On the back of the bow glue the plain clip.

Make sure you open it so you don't glue it together. :)

Add flowers if you'd like.

Here's the back.

Here's my daughter modeling them.

Are you ready for some Football!?

Ya.. me neither! LOL! I'm probably the only person in my family who isn't into football, or any sport for that matter. BUT my dear friend Diana asked if I could make her some card fronts for her grand-daughters scrapbook. She was a Denver Bronco's Cheerleader for Halloween. These are what I came up with.  I used the regular sized #3024 Cheerleader Tilda and the MINI #3024 Cheerleader Tilda from Diana's amazing store Magnolia-licious. I hope you and your family enjoy looking at these in the scrapbook.

Next stamp being released is so cute! I remember doing this when I was a kid, if it snowed now, I'd probably still do it! LOL Here is Little Darlings ' Catching Snowflakes'.

I haven't made a card in like a week and it feels like F-O-R-E-V-E-R! I made this card about a month ago for my moms friend, who was going to a baby shower. The colors were pink, black and white. Baby stuff tends to give me the he-be-jeebees, LOL! Everyone loved the card though. :)
