If there is a birthday coming up than why not make this hair bow for your special little girl. Its a cute hair bow that you can make out of glitter vinyl in lots of different colors. You can decorate the top with candles and change the icing to your favorite color.

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 line of hot glue (or your adhesive of choice) to the back of the pink rectangle and then press on top of the bow piece.
Step five
Place a dab of hot glue in the center back of the bow peice and press the edges over to adhere to the center.
Step six
Place a line of glue along the back of the icing pieces and place along the top edge of the bow.
Step seven
Put glue on the ends of the candle sticks and then press the flames on top, one at a time.
Step eight
Place a line of glue along the bottom front of the candle sticks and then press to the back of the bow.
Step nine
Place a line of glue along the alligator clip and then press to the back of the hair bow.
Step ten
Put a dab of glue on the end of the bow center piece and press to the inside of the alligator clip. Wrap it around and place another dab of glue on the end and press inside.
