The card base is made from a recycled file folder, and the front of the card is shorter so the punched edging shows from the inside of the card.
There is more than one kind of yoyo, so I went with fabric. The little washers beneath the brads were in my stash. I painted some corrugated cardboard with gesso and then acrylic paint, and cut leaves free-hand with deckle scissors. The stems are hand drawn.

Your fabric yo-yos are amazing, Melody! This is the direction I went but your yo-yos look so much better. I must have done something wrong. I like your flowers and all the little touches you have added, great texture and interest on this card.
