A friendship flower..........

Hi there.......just skipping in and out today with a fairly quick creation. This card was actually made for a super fun St. Paddy's Day Challenge over on the 'Two Scrapbook Friends' forum. The idea was to pick from a list of Irish related items, which were later translated into scrappy/craft products that you would have to include on your creation. A recipe challenge! My list included: Green Patterned Paper, Foam, Glimmer Mist, Lace and a charm. So, with these things in mind, here's what I ended up with............

First time I've tried one of these tissue paper flowers on a card......it took me back to JK days!


Now, I promised I would be mentioning you today.......yes YOU my scrappy friend Dee! I know exactly what you are thinking right now........this card is totally 'un'mailable......is that a word? lol


But you are right.....I agree. The flower stands out approx 3/4" so unless I feel inclined to create a box type of envelope (not!), it will be kept as the handing over in person type of thing.


So let's save our postage pennies Dee, but I must admit, it was fun to make!


Papers are from one of the new Jillibean Soup lines, by the way, and that's about it from me.


Skipping out and have a great day
