Circles......



I want to share my card with you this morning.  I was asked to be on a quest design team for Joan's Gardens;  Thank you, Joan!  That post is directly under this one.  While I had these Heartfelt Creations stamps out, I wanted to play with them a little more.    This is what I came up with! 

I made these flowers by cutting out designer paper from my stash with HCD 703 Daisy Patch DieCuts
then I sprayed them with Glimmer Mist (Pearl) and while the paper was still damp I twisted the edges of the flowers.  You glue together several layers and sizes and this is what you come up with!  I added a pearl to the center and it almost gives this a Christmas feel, with the reds and whites.    The verse is embossed with Silver embossing powder.

I don't have very many of these stamps, but I'm going to save my pennies and try to come up with more.  They are excellent quality and I loved playing with them.  You can purchase any of these at Joan's Gardens by clicking on the link above.  She carries a good supply of these stamps and dies!


Supplies:

HCD 703 Daisy Patch Die Cuts
HCPC 3309 Faith Heb. 11:1 PreCut Set

That is it for me today.  I'm off to get a second cup of coffee and sit for awhile and enjoy our Christmas tree.
Have a great weekend.  If you have snow where you are, try and stay warm and don't overdo with shoveling!

This is absolutely amazing. I can't imagine being able to get the circles right, let alone the flowers!!
Our tree finally goes up today. My husband insists on a real one, so I have to wait longer than I like to for the family tree-trimming party!
Happy Sunday!
