Two-Tone Ribbon Bow - finished pale yellow and orange bowYou can easily make your own two-tone bow out of pieces of ribbon. I like this one because it's glittery, fluffy, and super easy to put together.

Yield: 1 bow

Steps:

  1. Wrap ribbon around your card several times. I went around 6 times.

  3. Cut the ribbon on both sides of the edge of the card.

  11. Repeat with all of the strips.

  13. Glue several ribbon loops together at the corners, going around in a circle.
