Handmade Vellum Flowers

I feel good...

I am finally getting into the challenges again...

I have only been able to do a few...

and I love to do them...

 

I haven't done a Joan's Gardens challenge for quite sometime...

the challenge this week is:

Make 3 Vellum flowers

colors golden yellow and violet

mesh or tulle

and stencil on paper

and an item purchased from Joan's Gardens

Whew!!!  Now that is what I call a challenge!!!

 

 

I adhered my "tulle" to my cardstock with a spray adhesive I just recently purchased

from Joan's gardens called E6000...

it sticks real good, but you have to work fast as it dries very fast!!

Then I used some Martha Stewart Stencils and Tim Holtz Tea Dye Ink

and stenciled right over the tulle for my background

I added a beautiful piece from Graphic 45's Secret Garden paper pad

(also purchased from Joan's Gardens.

 

My vellum flowers were cut out with a TH Alterations Tattered Flower die

(also purchased from Joan's Gardens)

I edged them with stickles for some "glitz".

The leaves are from a Heartfelt die and covered with a "new to me" product

by Art Anthology called Dimensional Crystal in a "Pickle" color

it is the neatest stuff and I have it on order from Joan...
