Latest Bows

My sister-in-law Teresa & I had a bow-making night at her house a few weeks ago & I thought I would post our FABULOUS CREATIONS! We had fun & I think our stuff turned out pretty sweet!
I would love to get your comments on what you think of these.
These ones are the ones I made
On the gray & pink ones I put some satin pink spikes throughout them to give them a little more texture.
These are Teresa's. She made each of her girls a hair accessory for picture day.
(the top ones are brown & white/cream. I don't know why they're looking blue)
Here's Scooby, she used the "Hair Thingie's" to hold her messy bun piggies.
Kammers is wearing boutique bows in her messy bun piggies.
Finally, Bean Pie is sporting her Korker Bows.

These are some bows I made after I got home.
The top are brown korkers & I put in some thin cream colored ribbon to give it some contrast.
The red ones are for Stupid Falcon Friday (see any of my hair blog posts for Falcon Friday. I don't like it.) I threw in some spikes of a sheer sparkly white ribbon because Jackie's red shirt has lots of sparkles in it.
This is my Scrapbook Collection. I wanted to get creative and so I thought I would use some of my scrapbooking supplies.
The flowers are scrapbooking flowers with a brad in the middle & I used thin black ribbon for the backing.
Here is where I got Crazy. I didn't have the right color blue ribbon so I took white ribbon & rubbed one side of it with blue scrapbooking chalk. I turned out really cute & I thought it looked neat how one side was blue & the other was white. Also, the middle buttons are really little brads.
These are all layered scrapbooking flowers with a yellow button brad in the middle.

These are just 3 little flowers with an orange brad in the middle. These flowers didn't have the hole in the middle so I used my tiny hole puncher to make a small hole for the brads.

I'm confused about the brads. I've wanted to use them when making bows, because they are so much cuter than buttons, but how so you attach them? Do you actually punch a bow in the ribbon? Just the top layer? Please help this mommy. Thanks!

Dairmans- I actually used scrapbooking flowers to make these. I punched a hole (with my tiny hole puncher) in the top flower & put the brad in it & the glued it on the other ones.
