the kind like you would put on a gift.. not a loopy bow. I know I have seen pictures on here with bows like i am thinking of, but after searching 25 pages I gave up.. LOL. http://images.jupiterimages.com/common/detail/46/36/22763646.jpg Like this.. only nicer looking.. LOL. I am TIRED today and have NO patience for searching for images. I know HOW to make a bow like this out of real ribbon, but to make one out of gumpaste.. how would you go about letting the pieces dry? Anyone have any ideas they could pass along?

I just went to look for that tutorial after I posted my comment b/c that is the tutorial I used to make my pink bow. I come back and you beat me to it Karapags =)

I didn't pay attention to how thick I cut my ribbons and ended up cutting almost 1/4" wider than I should have. So hopefully the next one I do will be a lot closer to the tutorial. I finally got some more accurate tools to do it with.
