Greenhouse Garden

Hello everyone hope you are all well

I am now ready to show you what I was making with all those millions (ok slight exaggeration ) of Greenhouse Garden flowers.

Regular readers will know this was one of the first sets I bought and I have definitely had my moneys worth !


I have used it in a variety of ways but todays effort is something a bit different again.


I wasn't able to get to floristry yesterday as the girls had a teacher training day ( when we were at school weren't the teachers already trained ? ) but the project was to make a topiary ball so I decided I would make a paper one !!




It was definitely a labour of love because I stamped and cut out 6 layers for each flower



I am quite pleased with the end result and it makes an eye catching piece on a table to show off your cards.


I also made a few matching projects - the paper isn't Stampin Up but as soon as I saw it I thought of my beloved Baja Breeze and it became essential lol ! If anyone from SU is looking I NEED some pretty pastel vintage papers !




Sorry about the light in the pictures but it has been a very dark, dreary and wet day here today.

Hope you think I kept my promise of pretty and girly - now thinking about some Christmas topiary balls ................... x
