Hello!
How are you today?
I have finally got round to entering this week's challenge at Less Is More! The theme is
HANDMADE FLOWERS
I LOVE flowers and using them in one way or another on my cards so I thought I would have a go at something I have been meaning to try...
From the minute I saw the Mosaic punch I just knew it would make fab flowers. And I was right!
I stamped and punch 5 'petals' from the Mosaic Bundle, using Calypso Coral cardstock and Basic Black Ink, and arranged them as above. The centre is another handmade flower using the brilliant Simply Pressed Clay. I have a selection of white clay flowers and buttons just ready to colour using my Stampin' Write Markers...I can match them to any project this way!
The scoring was created using my Simply Scored tool and the paper piercing used the Paper Piercing Essentials pack. The sentiment is from the Itty Bitty Banners set, cut out using the Bitty Banners Framelits.
