Fun Flowers

Hello there,



Aren't there some gorgeous projects around in Blogland at the moment with all the Mini goodies ? Having to take it easy is becoming very frustrating but at least I have got more time to read about what everyone else has been making. I spent all morning today lying on the settee ruffling ribbon but I 'll show you that another day !


Todays cards are made from the new SU exclusive Fun Flowers die. These look fantastic all layered up but mine are in very short supply at the moment so I have had to make them last. I haven't got this die (yet!) but I have got just a few I managed to run through the Big Shot when at the training in Coventry - I did take my own paper lol !


Colours are Rich Razzleberry and Crumb Cake. I have used the Printed Petals set to make my own flower centre. Another die cut flower, this time the centre is made from Boho Blossoms and Itty Bitty punches and some gorgeous ribbon ruffles. Love the dimension and different textures !

The final of the 3 flower shapes teamed with my favourite Baroque Motifs swirl and a bow from the new seam binding ribbon.


Think you can see that from just 1 run through the Big Shot you can quickly make beautiful embellishments for 3 cards - can't wait to layer them when I've got my own never-ending supply !!!
