I decided to go CAS with this one... Last week I made a gift for a friend and used these ribbon flowers to embellish a serving tray and kitchen towels. When I saw today's challenge, I decided to make one more for a card. It is three bows layered on top of each other; a vintage button layered with a new one is stitched on with embroidery thread. This is too bulky for mailing, so it'll have to get tucked into a gift or something... Thanks for looking!
I love the simplicity and clean lines of this!! I actually have been playing with ribbon to make this kind of flower and just haven't been able to get it quite right, but now I have something to model it after!! Thanks for sharing!

Not only was I impressed with this challenge card, I was really impressed when I saw the towels that inspired today's card. The black and white gingham bows are awesome.
