What makes you happy?

Hello and it's time for me to post my inspiration for the week at Craft-Dee BowZ!  Today I chose an image from Sassy Cheryl. There's four of us on the team here at Craft-Dee BowZ and each of us gets a week to be featured. I hope you check back every Tuesday to see the new creations on the CDB Blog!

I colored my image with Copics and added a few polka dots to her dress to match her bow. I added this tiny pearl earring and some Ranger Glossy Accents to her patent leather shoes. I found these flower sequins at a craft store a while back and added just 3 of them as well as 3 pretty pearls. For reference, my card is 6"x 6".

My flowers are all made out of ribbon and the leaves are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The pretty acrylic flower is from my stash.  

                          

My bow is a little different this week. I always make double looped and triple looped bows. But I wanted you to see how perfect the bow tool can make even the simplest of bows, a single loop bow made out of grosgrain ribbon. Size is not an issue with the bow tool and you can make small bows to large bows and single to multi-looped bows. I love adding ribbon and lace to my cards and just a small bow can make such a difference to a creation! Here's what my bow tool looks like. It's affordable and simple to use. 

Our sponsor this month is Bugaboo and the very generous prize is four images of the winner's choice!  Bugaboo has hundreds of images and I am sure you're going to find more than four that you'd like!

There's five more days left in our challenge at Craft-Dee BowZ and I hope you'll join us. Remember that our challenge is ANYTHING GOES!

                                                                             Thanks for stopping by!
