Here is the card I designed today for a card challenge. The little bow on the candy cane was made with a fork Have you ever used a fork to make a bow? So many of my customers have trouble making bows. This simple fork technique will help you make a perfect bow every time. Want a bigger bow – find a bigger fork (like a meat fork). Today I thought I would do a video for this cool technique.
