This month I’m sharing a bright and colorful birthday card.
This is a 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″ basic layered top fold card. When I was unpacking (from my second move!) I found a folder of patterned papers that I obviously could not live without. That’s pretty funny because I almost NEVER use design paper. Well, buckle-up – you’re gonna be seeing some design paper from me ’cause I’m determined to use it up. You can see all the layers I used and I added my signature mulberry paper layer behind the main panel. Along with the bow, I used a layered bit of ribbon behind the main sentiment panel. I love that look. That’s a great way to use ribbon, and still keep the card flat for mailing if you omit the bow and flowers. I also added two Sweetheart Blossoms on either side of the sentiment to pull some yellow in.

My card is topped off with a pretty bi-color double loop bow created on my Bow-it-All V3.0 Tool using the pretty plaid ribbon from the April Ribbon Club Assortment from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

Hi Bonnie – always fabulous to stop by and see what bows you have created with the ribbon and your headband – here are two winners! I love that Double bow with the pearl heart – super!! Thanks for the hop
Such a well designed card. RRR adds volume to your card.
Mulberry paper is such a fun element to add to a card. Like a cloud in the heavens. I always enjoy your card layouts and colors; but, the headbands are superb and fill me with anticipation for the next hop to see what you will do. I started watching Kathy’s blog and have enjoyed the RRR hops since. Such inspiration from you and all the team.
I always love your bows. They make your cards so special along with your mulberry paper mats.
