I have been so inspired by the book "Delight in the Details" by Lisa M. Pace, that I decided to try my hand at making vintage looking flowers. This card is the results. I love how it turned out. I used a scalloped circle punch and punched 5 circles out of pages from an old worn paperback book. She has instructions in the book on how to layer each circle to form the flower. I used brown Colorbox ink to make it look even older and paired the flower with some single leaves and a vintage button to finish the look. I also sewed a zig-zag stitch across the front of the card. I will be making more of these. Hope you all have a very productive day doing what you love.
You did a wonderful job creating the flower. It is the perfect embellishment for your card.
ReplyDeleteI never would of thought to make the flowers out of a old book. Great idea
ReplyDeleteYou ladies have a great day and even a better weekend. The days are getting warmer. Time to plant and start a new flock of chickens. I'm going to try 6 this year. Steve
ReplyDeleteMike and I always have said we wish we could have a few chickens on our property...but I could just hear the neighbors complain when the rooster would crow at 4:00 in the morning. :) What kind are you getting?
