Flower Fusion


A project highlighting the new felt flowers SU! offers is in store for Friday and Stamp Nite. Stampin' Up! has a place on the demonstrator website that they call Workshop Wizard, it's a place where ideas may be found for workshops. Rarely do I use that portion of the site, but I enjoyed a layout very similar to this one that was displayed for June. I kept the overall size and layout the same, but pumped it up, as theirs was, well, pretty simple, even more so than this one.

Anyway, participants, on a first come first served basis, will choose one of these cards to create, in addition to the other projects I am offering. I've kept the inks the same on each card so that everyone at the table may create the card at the same time and not worry about double dipping; Versamark for the background stamping on each base, black and olive for the focal point.

These felt flowers are fun and a great way to add texture to a card or project. And you get oodles of them in a wonderful tin that can be altered when you are finished with them.

Happy Monday!
