Grunge Paper Flower cards
I,m still trying to do a little bit of crafting and sewing although my shoulder is still painful to move it,MRI scans on wednesday so hopefully they can sort me out after.
This past week i have been inspired to make some grunge paper flowers,why is it i still need to buy stuff,I have the diecut machines and a couple of flower punches but still need more different shape flowers grrrrrr ..........
Well with what i have at hand this is what i came up with not earth shattering lol but passable,i used some templates and my punch to cut ot these (bought some grunge paper from Ebay,I LOVE Ebay lol)
I then painted with metalic acyrlic paints before that i embossed on my cuttlebug,but did'nt work to good on grunge,so next time i will try card ,take a look at this ladies vidio on making flowers,very inspiring here The backgrounds i have used Batik Fabric layered onto felt,I meant to do some fancy stitching but forgot !
The blue/green card i dye'd some ribbon for the centre then put some gold glue dots onto that,used a brad for the centre to hold it all together.
Watching that vidio i think,i will invest in some more die's of different flower shapes ................here we go again lol

Pattie, I love these! The batik backgrounds really make them pop!
They're both beautiful! I love all the detail on the blue/green one, but I think my favourite is the purple one.
Sorry to hear about your shoulder Pattie, hope they can fix it soon and sort it out after your scan.

The batik backgrounds are awesome, Pattie, especially the top one. Were you channelling your inner hippy? LOL

Love them.
But I do find that like you once you have the basics ( die-cut m/c, ink pads, etc) you never have enough of what it takes to make the things ( dies, stamps) that you want for your latest artwork. I think that is one of the reasons I have stayed with collage and painting.
Welcome back Pattie, these are beautiful. You make me laugh about continuing to buy stuff when you have lots already, you aer just like me.
