Fast flowers

by | May 19, 2011

It’s been a busy week here, but sadly not with much card making. I’ve had a lot of accounts to do so have been busy trying to get them done between baby groups, feeds and nappy changes. I did manage to make this quick card in 5 minutes as a thank you to Stephanie, my first hostess.

This was made so quickly because of the genius that is the Big Shot. I used the vintage wallpaper embossing folder to create the background which is exclusive to Stampin’ Up! so if you like it and want it you’ll have to just drop me a line.

The beautiful flower was simply created with the Flower Daises die in super quick time because you can cut out up to 4 pieces of card at a time. A little bit of defining with the Bone Folder and there it sits proudly as a center piece, topped off with a button and some linen thread.

I’m entering this into the challenges:

Fab N Funky – create your own bloom
Papertake Weekly – Bloom and grow
A Spoonful of Sugar – Anything goes
Crafty Cardmakers – Embossing

Right oh, best be off to bed as Grace has been asleep all evening and it could be an early start or a really long night up!

Be back soon,

What do you think about today’s project. Let me know below.
