Craft-Dee BowZ Blog Hop

MarysBdaycardcopy

Welcome to another Craft-Dee BowZ Blog Hop! I am your first stop on this wonderful Blog Hop. Our theme this time around is Butterflies and Flowers with of course some pretty bows.

I have a birthday coming up this month for a special friend so I wanted to keep my card elegant but still simple. To do that I used an embossing folder from Craft Concepts called Achebe. Embossed on white cardstock.

Used Donna-Salazar Fanciful Flight Spellbinder die to cut out a butterfly which I attached on an embossed butterfly but just by the body.

For my bow, I did a multiple loop bow with the Craft-Dee BowZ and added some tails. I then took my heat gun and “melted” my ribbon some to make it “curly”.

Used a sentiment from Paper Pretties and layered with a little bit of grey to get the final card:

Holy Cow! I LOVE your card!!
The bow is beautiful - I would never have thought of melting the ribbon, but the effect is gorgeous. Thanks for the inspiration.
