Flower making part deux

Hello, what've we got here then?




Ooh, flower making goodies, I think I'll ask Podgy if I can use his pawmade flowers




Now I'll need the wire cutters




to cut this bendy green wire I've threaded through the back of the flower.




Add a few beads and leaves, and wind the tape round the wire, to bind everything together.




Ooh, pretty.




I'll make a flat one too, for a card that can fit into a pre made envelope.




Utilising Podgy's flowers helped me to create these, two cards and one canvas.




I'd like to enter the canvas into Eclectic Paperie's Flower challenge. I dabbed distress inks on the canvas, then added a piece of distressed brick effect embossed card and a fence covered with picket fence distress stain. I then added a Marianne Creatables bird and tree branch die for a finishing touch. Ooh, I distressed the easel that came with the canvas too. This will be going into the bears' present box, ready for a friend for a birthday, or even Christmas present.




If you like challenges, how about joining the bears' literary based challenge? Details can be found Here.

With love from the bears.

  1. I love your flowers. I'd never dream of trying them because they look so complicated. I'd never get them to look as good as yours!

  3. Beautiful work bears. Paw made is wonderful, better than my ham fisted hand made attempts!
