Bows are my favorite way to add ribbon to any card because they are easy to grab from the stash - no measuring or wrapping, just pop it on and it's done! I do tie lots of bows at one sitting so that I have a good stash of them when I need them. I also tend to use white ribbon for the bows and that way I can 'dye' them any color I need. I do that with a marker, usually one I've used in coloring the image, so that the bow color matches the image.

Cute monkey, love the die you’ve used to cut it with, as well as the clean, decorative ribbon arrangement. Thanks for joining our challenge at Catch the Bug.
I love your fun monkey and that ribbon is perfection. You are so smart in making the white bows, it took me awhile to figure that out and in the meantime have a bunch of ribbon begging to be used. =} Thanks so much for joining us at AYLI Challenge!

He is delightful! Love the textured ribbon you have used here, perfect for taking the "leafy" look outside of the image.
Hugs Monica
