This is for the Hope You Can Cling Challenge 11 called Happy Flowers-we were to make our own paper flowers and make a card. I made the flower using 7 strips of handmade paper. I added a light teal brad with silver around it, cut the prongs off the brad and used the hot glue gun to attach it to the flower. I then used the hot glue gun to attach the flower to the SU Very Vanilla cs, used the SU ticket corner punch and added mini silver adhesive beads to the corners. I used unknown striped dp and SU Barely Banana for the layers. I also added silver adhesive mini silver beads to the corners. I used the MS Triple Butterfly punch onto SU Real Red cs and added small and mini adhesive pearls for the centers of the butterflies. The base of the card is SU Real Red cs. I also added a hardware that says "wish" towards the bottom.
Paper: SU Real CS, SU Barely Banana, SU Very Vanilla, misc striped dp, hand made paper
Accessories: light teal brad with silver around it, hot glue gun, MS Triple Butterfly punch, hardware, small & medium adhesive pearls, mini silver adhesive beads, SU ticket corner punch

The shabby nature of this flower is fabbo, I love it... great to pair it with the butterflies too, and I love the "wish", thanks so much for playing along with this challenge!
