C.R.A.F.T. Challenge #147 - Handmade Flowers

 This week at C.R.A.F.T. our challenge is Handmade Flowers. Our sponsors this week are:
Crimson Cloud
The prize for winner 1 is 3 diecut packs of choice from their shop.

Floppy Latte Designs
The prize for winner 2 is a $10.00 USD Gift Coupon for their shop.

Aifactory
The prize for sponsor 3 is 2 images of choice from her site

 This week I decorated a MDF vase which I bought some time ago.

I covered it in a sheet of 12" x 12" K & Co paper, distressed the edges with a Whisper brown ink pad, added two difference lace's. I then printed and re-size the butterflies from Alifactory and coloured them with pink and brown inks. The handmade flowers are made from handmade papers, which each petal is folded and five are then glued together, then I attached a button with some florist wire, pop through the middle adding a little glue to secure.
Do come and join in the fun HERE

Something Different - A Gift



Hello, a quick post as I have to dash off to aqua fit tonight and then on my way back home I can stop in the shop and buy myself some chocolate!!! I have non in the house and I'm climbing the walls. So over at C.R.A.F.T. challenge this week the theme is Gifts. This little container once housed some paper flowers which have long gone but I hung onto it as it was too good to be thrown away. I've filled it with little foam stamps, punched butterflies, small ink pad and a few other goodies and may pop it the table at the next craft fair. I've coloured the image with Promarkers and Polar White Flowersoft on the ear muffs, cuffs and boots. Added a bit of lace along the top and ribbon on the bottom. The handle is completely covered with tied ribbon bows. Hope you like it. Jeanette
