Hello Everyone
It's been a very long time since blogged on here, so thought it was about time I got myself organised and started posting again.
This card was made for one of my classes, and I must say the ladies loved it, and were surprised at how simple it was to actually do. When closed the card lays flat, and was held shut with a decorated band. Once open it simply explodes into life. All the supplies are available from Stampin' Up, except the paper, which unfortunately has now been discontinued - but there are lots of other beautiful ones to choose from. You can shop 24/7 on my online shop, or email me if you would like to order direct.
The stamps I have used are Flower Shop, Papillon Potpourri and Four Frames, plus the matching punches, which I confess I am completely addicted to.
I would like to enter my creation in the following challenges;
Crafting From The Heart - anything goes/use flowers
Anyone For Anya - odd card, no standard shape
Fashionable Stamping Challenges - build it up
Great Impressions - florals
Quirky Crafts - Lets quirky well, pile it high, layer it up and 3D it
Sentimental Sundays - pack a punch
Flat Friends Challenge - more than one fold
Stampin' Up The Weekend - flower power
Thanks very much for looking, and if you like what you see, please, please become a follower.
Big hugs Sharon xx
