A huge thank you for the lovely emails and comments about my project count down, I really love that positive feedback and I have also been asked LOTS about my bows…… well I have made a video on how I make my bows but it is really bad quality and I just have not had the time to look into how to edit it, however if you have four minutes to spare I have added the VERY poor quality video at the end of this post.
I hope todays card “Razzle Dazzles” you? Well if it does not I can tell you my craft room is most certainly “dazzling” with glitter all over it from this card and other projects I have in the works. I have used a sketch challenge from iheart2stamp.com I flipped the layout but I think it still works. I challenged myself not to use any Pink on this card and pulled out Blush Blossom and Close to Cocoa, it is a colour combo that I have used before and I always think the colours work so well together.
Here is the iheart2stamp.com sketch:
So what do you think? Does Close to Cocoa with Blush Blossom work?
Inside I have just stamped the main image from “Razzle Dazzle” along the bottom and applied Dazzling Diamonds Glitter over the image with a Two Way Glue Pen. The quote is from Seaworthy and I will admit I bought that set just for that one stamp….. {is that bad}
Materials:
Stamps: Seaworthy and Razzle Dazzle from the Summer Mini
Ink: VersaMark, Blush Blossom and Close to Cocoa
Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Blush Blossom and Close to Cocoa
Other: Circle Scissors Plus, Daubers, Two Way Glue, Dazzling Diamonds Glitter.

Here is the worst quality video and slowest bow ever being made:
Thanks for stopping by. 🙂

The colours look dazzling together (sorry about the pun!) Teneale, so soft and serene; I just love it. Again, you have managed to make this set look good – don’t know how you do it!!! LOL Bit worried about the time your entry was posted though! Cheers
Tenealle I think you could make anything work! These 2 colours together are just fabulous and I am keen to give them a try. Thanks so much for the bow tying video it was great! Liked the music! Really enjoying your daily countdown, thanks so much for doing this.
Absolutely gorgeous creation Teneale. I also love the bow video with the groovy music! Might delve into video making one day myself. I will have to practise though! LOL!
Thank you for posting how to make your beautiful bows. It looks like you use a lot less ribbon that way also!
This is the best special treat – a Teneale card every day!!! Just beautiful again. Love the colours. And THANKS heaps for the bow tying video.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE blush blossom and Close to Cocoa together! Just gorgeous! And you’re video was awesome – not bad quality at all. So clever – I will HAVE to incorporate your awesome bows in my next project!! Thanks so so much for sharing!!! xxx

Teneale,
As you know i am one of your greatest fans, your creations are just amazing, your attention to every detail is superb.
When i saw that you had also created your own little video i was blown away. How clever of you to share your wonderful ribbon tying skills with everyone.
I love the card and the gentle colours, just beautiful.
Love you, Mum
Teneale, Your work is amazing and thank you have shared your bow tips. You are SO very talented and I am so happy to see you career is taking off. I can say I knew her when. You have always stayed true to yourself and the most lovely person I know. I miss cards class and YOU….
Lots of love Sue
OMG – you are amazing – so inspiring – thankyou so much for sharing! By the way – the blush blossom and close to cocoa is good enough to eat!! LOL!!
Thanks so much for the video!!! I can’t wait to create new bows!
I saw a link to your pages from Marelle Taylor’s blog….You are so talented. I don’t want to make cards now, I just want to look at yours and absorb the detail. ‘Wow’ does not say enough….
Oh I love this card. Just perfect as always and oh my goodness love the video to make a perfect bow. Just a great nifty trick.

Hey Teneale, I want to set you a challenge! If you post a card every day until end of SAB, I will (try) to comment every day on them. (except for the last weekend when we are at possums and as long as you are not doing them too far out of my sleep zone, I know you can keep up the late nights) The colors in your card are very restful together, they are beautiful and I like the way you have done the half circle thingy with the razzle dazzle in the middle, it makes it look like a big D for the dream in the saying? And your video is really good. I bet we will all do it slower than that when we try it! Thanks for once again sharing your little tricks. You are so talented.
I LOVE this card. Only you can make Blush Blossom look good! And your video is so cute! Thanks heaps for taking the time to do that for us all
xoxo
Great video!! I would never have thought to tie a bow this way – not in a million years – it is soooooo clever! Thx for sharing it…If you saw the bow tying war that I take part in every time I do a bow, you would think I was crazy!! You have just saved my life. Oh and U do realise that there will be Teneale bows all over the place now, don’t you??!!?? 🙂
