These are usually called stacked or layered boutique bows. you have the same fold for each bow but you use different widths and then add spikes in between one of the layers.

You can try to make it before buying an instruction. Use Michelle's how to make 4 loops even as a guide for that fold. There are 3 layers of butterfly fold and 1 layer of spikes in the bow in your photos. The bottom bow is 1 1/2" lined with 7/8". The top bow is 7/8" and between the top bow and spikes is 3/8" loopies. the widths are differrent but the fold is just one. Make the 3/8" loopies a bit bigger than the 7/8", and the bottom bow a bit bigger than the 3/8" . Finish all layer, stack them together, secure with thread or wire, attach a clip, put a piece of 3/8" ribbon over the middle of the bow. Voila, you've got it.
