Hi there everyone. Can you ever have enough birthday cards? I think not! I always start out the year in good shape, but things fall apart about half way through, so I’m trying to get some birthday cards done ahead. This one already went to my wonderful SIL, but I WILL get ahead this year if it kills me!
Today I’m playing along with the weekly Cheery Lynn Designs Challenge. The theme this week is Add a Flourish. That one’s easy. I LOVE flourishes!
I have a video tutorial for Cheery Lynn Designs Sweet William flowers HERE if you have not already seen it.
Is anyone interested in a video on how I made these fantastic Gardenia flowers? Is so, please leave a comment below.
My double-loop double-layer bow was made with White Delicate Stitched Satin from Really Reasonable Ribbon on my Bow-it-All V2.0. This ribbon is my all time favorite ribbon for tying gorgeous puffy bows. I’m including a video below to show you how I create this wonderful bow.

Ahhhhh, what a gorgeous card and that bow is fantastic. So, I received some beautiful ribbon from a friend across the pond and now I know where she got that ribbon…from your store. It's the same pattern that is on this ribbon. It's just gorgeous and now I know where to buy more of it! 🙂 Hugs, Gail
