Todays CAS challenge is 'Things With String' ... Before die-cutting the flowers, I spritzed the paper with a light floral perfume, so they really are worth sniffing! I wrapped string around the top of the jar and added a bow. I shaped the jar, added foam pads to the centre and wet glue to the sides. I chalked the lower edge with soft grey to ground the jar.

This is lovely, Sandie! Your jar of colorful flowers are so pretty, Since I totally lost my sense of smell a long time ago, it never even occurs to me that things actually have a scent. I'm not allowed to buy things like perfume or candles w/o the supervision of a "smeller", lol.

The simplicity of this card is beautiful ... the colours pop showing off the details of the dies, and the jute bow is the perfect finish ... beautiful card Sandie, and I bet it smells wonderful.

I love your bright colored die cut flowers bunched so prettily together. It's a beautiful way to use them without having to spend a lot of time coloring them. I'm going to get out my die cuts and have some fun. Thanks for sharing.
