Ready for another challenge? This weeks challenge over at La-La Land Crafts is . . . Make Your Own Flowers! Our hostess, KIM challenged the DT's,GDT's, & YOU to create our own flowers. I know there are tons of ways to make them so join in on the fun!
Since Kim used Porsha for her card, Porsha can be purchased at 20% off only for the week of this challenge at the Online Store! And guess what? Remember the Easter Digi Collection? Well, IT'S IN RUBBER!!! You can purchase them at the Online Store too!
So, on to my card . . .
I used these papers that I received from Ms. Amy Young of A thousand sheets of paper. I sorta CASEd her card that she sent me. {Sparkle Thistleweed} . . . Anyway, I took Lala with Bunny's head & Lala with Rose's body from the Easter digi collection and did a little altering as well as trying the paper tole thingy. I colored her with my copics and used my clear Spica pen to add some sparkles on the top part of her dress. Voila . . . there's she is!
I decided to make my flowers out of ribbon. I didn't realize how many ribbon spools I had. They're just sitting there begging to be used! This is how I made my ribbon flowers. I cut at piece of ribbon, anywhere from 6 inches to 12 inches depending on the size of the ribbon. With a needle and thread, I did a simple stitch along one edge until I reached the end of the ribbon. I gathered the ribbon by pulling both ends of the thread and tying a knot. I embellished the center with pearls. Easy peasy!
