Belles and Whistles has started sponsering challenges on their blog. You can check it out here. Well lucky for me, my first Belles and Whistles stamps arrived last week. I just love Elisabeth Bell's designs. The challenge this week was to create your own flowers. I found a tutorial on YouTube that shows how to use the Tim Holtz grunge flowers technique using your Cricut to cut the flowers. I used plain white paper and inked the edges a soft pink and sprayed them with some homemade glimmer mist. I was really pleased how they turned out. The sentiment was stamped onto a ticket I downloaded from The 80's Me. She has some really great freebies on her site. I love the sheet music paper I've been seeing on a lot cards lately and found this free download at Carol Annes Boutique. Hope you like it. Thanks for stopping by.
Materials Used:
Image - Belles & Whistles Tea Time
Cardstock - DCWV Linens-n-Things
