Lydia challenged us to fill our space by going 3D today. Not only is my poinsettia 3D, popped up and layered, but the oval panel is up on foam tape and my ribbon certainly takes up space! I think this will be one of those hand delivered cards, lol!
I figured this next part out all by myself...I'm so pleased! Would you believe this flower is made out of 2 fancy flower punches? I punched a flower, turned it slightly and punched again to create a 10 petal flower with pointed tips. Do this 2 times. For the top, take one of your flowers and cut, following the curve of the petal, towards the center of the flower but not all the way to the center. Do this on every other petal. Curve every other one up. Sponge both pieces and glue together, off-setting the top petals. I used sticky strip to adhere some gold microbeads to the center.
The gold frame, Favorite Frame set, is embossed on cherry cobbler. the center was cut with an oval nestie out of dp. Green layer was embossed and sponged with garden green and cherry cobbler. Every layer was sponged with cherry cobbler. Some mulberry leaves and ribbon and gold cord finish it off.
TFL and reading my ramblings!
