2 Sketches 4 You: Laura's Sketch 37


[click pic for larger view]

Here's a quick card I made based on Laura's sketch #37 over at the 2 Sketches 4 You blog. Be sure to check out the blog for some amazing samples by Laura and the DT!

These flowers are the funnest to make!! I discovered them today over at the Pink Paislee blog.
See the FLOWER TUTORIAL POST HERE for Holly's AMAZING tutorial.

Just think of the possiblities!! You can glimmer mist them, glitter them....they are SO fast and easy to make. You can even cut the petals differently.
I coated one with Rock Candy distress paint. It's drying at the moment....

Tips:
The smaller you cut your square, the harder they are to work with. The flowers on my card above started out as 4", 3", and 2.5" squares. That little one was a pain!
Also, if you don't have big enough brads, you can use buttons. That's what I did.

Have fun!! I cannot wait to play and experiment with these tomorrow!!

Stamps:
Unity: Game of Chance Bingo
The Greeting Farm: Flutter Anya

If you haven't already, please see my DT announcement in the post below! I hope you play along with us this week!
