This fancy hair bow can be made a few different ways you can leave the layers flat for a cool design or fold the layers back to create a different shape. Make it in a variety of different colors to create different styles. You can make this for your hair or for decorting crafts with cute bows.

To continue to the next screen press the green “Make” button.
Step two
In the Prepare screen you will see how the color layers will cut on the mat. Each color will cut out on a seperate mat.
Now cut out a piece of glitter vinyl for each layer slightly larger than you will need. If you have several mats you can prepare them now with each color of glitter vinyl or if you have one mat you will need to load the vinyl after each cut.
This is how you want the fabric to look before you load it into the cutting machine. I recommend putting some transfer tape onto your cutting mat first, sticky side up, this will help keep your mat clean. And you will also need to go around the edge of the vinyl with painters tape to hold it in place. And you want the fabric good side down. I used a purple strong grip cutting mat for cutting a heavier fabric such as glitter vinyl.
Press the green “Continue” button to move to the next screen.
Step three
In the make screen you can choose your cut setting, and blade pressure. In this tutorial I used the “Faux leather (Paper thin)” setting.
Now follow the instructions on your screen on which blade to use. Load your mat and press the flashing “C” button on your machine to cut the fabric.
Here you see all the fabric shapes cut out in each color.
Step four
Place a small dab of glue and press together the ends to create a loop with the bow piece.
Step five
Place the tiniest line of hot glue along the front center and press together to create a pleat.
Step six
Place a dab of glue on the back of the bow and press to the back piece.
Step seven
Place a line of glue along an alligator clip and press to the back of the assembled hair bow.
Step eight
Put a bit of hot glue on the end of the band and press to the inside of the alligator clip. Wrap it around and then put a bit of hot glue on the other end and press to the inside of the alligator clip again.
Now your hair bow is complete and is ready to be worn.
