Flowery Friday


I have been asked to set up a card booth at our Spring Plant Sale in March for the High School Band Boosters.  They want the cards to be "Springy."  I decided that I need to get a head start on this because I am a World Class Procrastinator!!  Typically I wait until the veeery last minute and then kill myself trying to get everything done in one day.

I saw a variation of these flowers over on Dawn McVey's blog (go check it out, she uses pages of a book to create her flowers.)  I adapted them to fit my needs.  I just took some white cardstock and stamped various colors on it.  I let it dry and then cut 5 flowers out on my Cricut.  I then crumbled them up, un-crumbled them (yes un-crumbled is the technical term.)  I stacked them together and secured them with a brad.

BLUE FLOWER CARD
 I placed a blue button threaded with twine in the center and accented with leaves.  I inked th leaves with green ink.

PINK FLOWER CARD
I placed a pink button threaded with twine in the center.  I stickled leaves and the edges of the flower.  I haven't stamped any sentiments on these yet since I don't know what they will be used for.  I may just leave them as they are.  What do you think?

Thanks for looking.  As always comments and ideas are welcome.  If you are interested in the specific products used, just e-mail me.  Have a great weekend!
