Here's the sketch...it's a beauty!
And here's my card!
How-To Tips: The Bow Easy helps you make pretty bows, but to make it look like you tied it onto the card, you have to create a pinch in the flat ribbon wrapped around the card. To do that, I took a piece of black thread, knotted it around the flat ribbon, and added the bow with glue dots. I also put a glue dot under the pinch in the flat ribbon to hold everything in place nicely. Nobody likes a saggy bow.
Have fun hopping!
