Project: Paper Bow

Was invited to a co-worker's son's 2nd birthday party.   Found the perfect gift, but needed to wrap it appropriately.  I had  plain blue paper and but no bow or card.  So I decided to make a quick paper bow using cartoon cardstock.  

First attempt at a paper bow and this is what I learned
  1.  Make sure to have supplies handy.  (I ran up and down the stair a lot.)
  2. Liquid glue worked best for gluing the pieces together.
  3. But double sided tape works best for sticking the bow to the package.
  4. Have patience to hold the pieces together while the glue dries
  5. Next time I will design a print and cut label/tag. and use more yellow in the tag.
  6. Time to stock up on solid colored cardstock. (needed yellow for the tag)
