What a beautifully sunny afternoon we have here in Shropshire today, just gorgeous. Just looking out of the window (from inside the warm house) you feel as though you could go out in your shorts and T-Shirt but at 4 degrees, I dont think so.
This week in craft class we did two very different cards, one a Christmas card and the other a general thinking of you card. To see the Christmas card, please pop over to my Non SU Projects gallery to see the cheeky snowman (scroll down to the bottom of the page). For the thinking of you card we made a flower out of a 3" x 3" square piece of card which caused many giggles and looks of disbelief when I started explaining how to do it, to looks of amazement and delight when it actually turned out as it should have and as promised by me at the beginning of class. We also use the Extra-Lage Two-Step Bird Punch to create the leaves and "fronds" of the flower. Take a look and let me know what you think.
Punch Used: Extra-Large Two-Step Bird
Accessory used: Crimper

Gorgeous Loraine! I love the colours, the knock-out flower and the crimping. How did we ever manage without the fabulous two-step bird punch?!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colours and love your flower just stunning
ReplyDeleteSuch a delightfully sunny and cheerful card... the flower looks out of this world. Simplicity speaks millions sometimes or rather at all times.

Great rolled flower, no wonder your ladies were delighted. And I like how you've used the crimped background to show it off. Must make time to play with my new crimping tool too.
