As soon as I saw this weathered wood paper from the new Sweet Pea collection by Craftwork Cards, I knew what I wanted to do.....use my memory box window die with the shutters, and build a spring scene.........
The flowers were punched from the pastel papers, and shaped with a foam mat and a ball tool before being arranged into the window box, which I cut by hand......
I put some blossoms onto the twig branch, to make it more Springlike. Do you know what they are? I punched holes using the largest punch on a cropadile, and collected the little punched circles. They are perfect!
I will be sorting out the winners of this months challenge over the next couple of days, forgive me but I have had a few problems to deal with. I need to think of the next challenge as well.......... watch this space

ReplyDeleteNow that card is a total stunner, Enfys! How clever of you. As for Max and Milo they are adorable. Somehow can't picture you as a generic, totally interchangeable Grandma!! But I do get a kick out of his turning it into one word.

This card is so beautiful..you have such great insight as to what's going to look wonderful together!! And as for Max & Milo.....I have witnessed the same thing with my Grandson Mikah (5) and his brother Russell (3). Sometimes Mikah is giving his brother Russell a great big hug..and It looks like he's actually trying to choke him!!! Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!
