This was another of our club projects this past month. It is made with the matchbox die using Saffron paper. If you look really close you can see that I rolled the base of the box with the friends wheel using Saffron, so it gives it a tone on tone look. I wrapped the box in chocolate chip grosgrain ribbon and punched some leaves with the 2 step bird punch out of celery. The flower on top is made with 5 scallop circles. I balled each one up, inked all the edges and put a small flower (trio flower) and a brad in the center. You then smoosh all toward the middle (brad) and then loosen up the layers. It's a fairly quick and easy flower to make but it's fun and gives a nice effect. I'm liking making the flowers and trying out different punches and such to make them. It's spring and I'm ready to see some flowers. How about you? I actually saw daffodils blooming today. I like seeing them as it means winter has pretty much gone away (with a few exceptions, but for the most part). I mean here it can snow one day and have record heat the next. You just never know. It makes life interesting for sure, which is how I like it for the most part.
So I hope you have a great day today. Blessings.
