Let's just say this was my first attempt at alot. This is also the first time I did the no-tie bow technique and first time using the wrought iron punch! LOVE all of these! I used a sponge to apply the ink instead of brayer.

I like the way the punched corners are plaid too - very interesting look & a great way to attach the vellum. I would also love to know how you did the bow - it looks perfect :-)

Beautiful card! My plaid maker will be here on Tuesday. I can't believe that it has taken me this long to order one!! Where can I learn how to make a no-tie bow? My customers have the worst time making bows, this could save [email protected]

I was thinking of ordering the plaid maker. Was it pretty simple and quick to this. I like the look of plaid, but do not want to spend too much time. What do you think

One bit of advice on the plaidmaker (which, btw, is one of my favorite accessories) - if you get it, get a brayer & TWO foam inserts. This way you don't have to rinse the insert & dry it between colors. Otherwise, it's pretty easy. I love it!

I will post the instructions that I have for the no-tie bow in a bit. As far as the plaidmaker...LOVE it. I have not tried it with brayer yet but only because I don't have a foam attachment. Hope this helps! Glad you all enjoyed this card.
