Flower girl


Morning all, the weather seams to be getting a bit warmer so it's perfect timing for the next challgne at CRAFT challenge which is Handmade flowers.
We have  3 sponsors this week

For my DT card I've used this pretty digi image from Aifactory, isn't she sweet.

I've made a handmade flower by cutting out a scallop shape from card (using a Stampin up punch). I've cut down the edges of each scallop towards the center. I've then scrunched it all up and spritzed it with water which meant I could tease apart the edges of each petal so it looks like it's more than one layer. I have to thank Carole for this idea, Carole runs a local crop and demonstrated this at the weekend. I've used the boho blossoms Stampin up punch to add more layers to the flower.
The image is coloured in with Promarkers, I've used papers from a First Editions paper pad, the sentiment is using a Stampin up stamp, I've also used a Spellbinders spendid circles die and scallop die, butterfly MS punch and finally some liquid pearls.

Thanks for looking and don't forget to check out the rest of the DT cards here for lots if inspiration.
