Morning all
So, I have to hold my hands up to being completely pants with my New Years resolution of posting a new card every other day...in my defense, I've had a cold/tummy bug you name it, I've had it and haven't crafted for chuffin' ages!!
I will do better, I promise!
Anyway, today I want to show you a really really simple card I have made with a handmade flower on it that I have made into a brooch so that my friend can wear it!
Recipe: ribbon from gift, 12x12 paper from stash, Making Memories chipboard pieces, button from stash.
I have had these chipboard pieces for years, and they are never the right colour so I turned them over and coloured them myself and added the stitching detail. The ribbon flower is my favourite thing to make...so easy but looks so amazing. I shall be doing a tutorial on this in the future on my challenge blog Top Tip Tuesday.
I would also like to enter this into the following challenges:
CRAFT Challenge #85 - Moving Components - the brooch moves and comes off the card!!
4 Crafty Chicks - Show us some metal - the metal pin on the back of the brooch
Dutch Date #95 - All Stitched Up - real stitching on the ribbon, and faux stitching on chipboard and button
2 Sisters Challenge #22 - Flowers - ribbon flower!
Thanks for stopping by!
