Flowers For A Friend!

Morning everyone, well it's been a while since I managed two posts in one week, I guess life is returning to normal at last! I have something a little different today as I have not used any images for a change. I followed this tricky but fab sketch from A Die For A Sketch


I really wasn't sure where I was going with this one at first. I started with the background using some Echo Park - So Happy Together papers and whilst looking for some suitable dies I came across this gorgeous Floral Circle die by Memory Box ( which I had forgotten I had bought!)  and decided it would look perfect instead of an image!


I ran the die through with two different papers and then cut out the flowers on one to make it more effective. The corner dies are nesties and the sentiment is by Craftwork Cards.


I would also like to enter this into


Thanks for looking!

  1. Its beautiful Helen! Love your forgotten MB die it looks really pretty centre stage! I did a similiar thing I saw a SB die I really liked but, luckily, just before I was going to order it I found it in my drawer!! (Don't tell my husband he already thinks I have far too much stash)!!! xx
