Craft-Dee BowZ Spring Blog Hop

Hi Everyone,
It's spring, finally, and welcome to the CDB Spring Blog Hop. If you hopped her from Brenda's blog then you are in the right place, otherwise you may want to start at the Craft-Dee BowZ blog to become eligible for the Craft-Dee BowZ prize of the great bow maker tool.

I hope you've been inspired so far and I thought since spring is here, at least that's what they keep saying, I thought butterflies and flowers would be in order.

I recently added an embossing folder to my collection, it has butterflies on it and I thought it fit the theme, perfectly. The stamped image is one for Northwoods. They always have beautiful images, don't they!! That background paper is so dreamy and its from Prima, its called Firefly. And the butterfly is also from Prima.

The bow maker tool is so easy to use and lets you go from bow challenged to a  bow making expert starting with your first bow. Small, easy to use and gives you the option of many different bow styles. I use this tool on almost every card I make.

Thanks for taking the time to join us for the first blog hop. Please remember to comment here on my blog and then leave one last comment over at the Craft-Dee BowZ blog  to be eligible for the prize.  We value all of your comments!!

Craft-Dee BowZ Valentine's Blog Hop

Hi Everyone
Welcome to the first Craft-Dee BowZ Blog Hop. This months blog hop is featuring a Valentine theme. If you hopped here by way of Amber's Blog then you are in the right place!! Otherwise you might wish to start at the Craft-Dee BowZ blog to become eligible for the Craft-Dee BowZ prize of a tool and a spool of beautiful ribbon.

Since Valentine's Day is right around the corner I thought I would make a card that might give you some inspiration if you still need to make that special card for the special someone in your life.

A side step card makes a cool card and is quite easy to make and assemble

Here is a close up of my bow

and using the Craft-Dee BowZ tool makes your bow making abilities easy.

I also made a darling little box that is perfect for a little sweet treat to accompany a card.

  

I used just a single loop bow using wired ribbon. It turned out to be a perfect choice for this box.

Here is a view more from the top looking down. It gives a better view of the bow.

Here is the box opened with the sweet treats spilling out
