a bow...


As you can tell I am not a bow person.
In fact I have ribbons dating back 15 years from a job I had ata a crafting store.
But I wanted to “challenge” myself so I pulled out some ribbon to match this image and there you have it!
The base card is cream linen card stock.
Using another piece of linen card stock and Tim Holtz 3D “Roses” folder first I smudged Distress Oxide walnut stain ink on the smooth side.
Then I ran it through the BigShot three times.
Once out I applied it to the base card.
After making a slit wide enough for the ribbon on the top of the card I ran it through and tided a bow on the front.
