Instructions for bow

Supplies Needed: 12x12 card stock( I prefer double sided)
hole punch
2 buttons or brads
18 inches of ribbon
Paper trimmer

Step 1: You are going to need to cut 12 strips of paper. 4 at 1x12, 4 at 3/4x11, and 4 at 1/2x10.
You will also need a a strip at 1x6












Step 2: Fold into desired loop, you are just doing this to get an idea of where you want to punch your holes.






Step 3: You are going to want to punch holes all the way through each loop. I use my making memories hand punch, but any punch will work.I punch the first one as a guide, and then overlap it onto the other strips it size. You will also need to punch a hole into the smaller piece, but this hole doesn't need to be on the top as well. ( so instead of having three holes in it, it will only have two)


Step 4: You are going to thread your ribbon through your button. This is going to be on the inside of your small loop.This is what holds your ribbon together.

Step 5: Start to thread your other loops, starting with the smallest loops first. You also want the top to be threaded first. Continue this until you have thread them all.

Step6: You will need to add a button to the bottom, this helps keep the loops in their place.

Step7: Fluff to desired look.

You Are Loved- Simple Stories

YOU ARE LOVED! Hey y’all! Courtney here and today I am sharing the layout I created using the So Happy Together collection. This is such a beautiful collection and I wanted to put every single piece in the collection on my layout. I decided to go with a free cut file from Paper Issues so I could use a ton of patterned papers. For backing my cut files I used a variety of pattern papers from the 6x8 paper pad. I love having the smaller prints to use with cut files. I cut my actual cut file on the Happy Heart paper, I am obsessed with anything polka dot and black and white. I cut about an inch ½ inch on each side so I could layer the beautiful Our Story paper behind it. After I filed my cut file, I began laying a ton of ephemera, chipboard and stickers. There is a ton of great images and tiny word phrases. I layered a 4x4 photo that I trimmed down to fit onto the gingham 4x4 card and then I layered it onto the My Family paper. Then I finished my cluster with a w...

You and Me- Simple Stories

YOU & ME! Hey y’all! Courtney here again and today I am sharing a layout that I created using Autumn Splendor collection. This collection reminds me of my child hood. We always had these amazing vintage calendars in our house and every year when they were done my mom would cut them up to use as ephemera or decoupage the cutouts on something artistic. For this layout, I used  a cut file from Paper Issues called You and Me and cut it out in black to make it pop off the page. Then I backed the cut file in Seasons if Change, the B side of the 4x4 elements, Grateful Hearts, Autumn Leaves, and the b side of the 2x2 elements. I used the Elm/Cream Ledger paper from the SN@P Basics as my background. I matted my photos on a piece of vellum and then on the Grateful Hearts paper. I layered them on either side of the cut file. I created three clusters with another cut file from Paper Issues called Collecting Leaves that I cut out of the Turquoise Dots paper. I then layer...
