This is for WT169, Get Wired.
I used fine gauge wire for the flower, making each petal separately and twisting them together at the end. I stuck the brad right through the white card, it helps anchor the flower down so it doesn't need gluing. For the stem I shaped some thicker wire into the stem and leaves. Then I put some PVA glue on the leaves and stuck green tissue paper on. When it was dry, I cut round the edges.
For the rest, I sponged the edges of the white card, and stamped a HA sentiment. Used the ticket corner punch. The orange layer also has the edges sponged in green, and I used little green brads on it in the corners. I think they are Making Memories, the crystal brad is definitely MM.
