Listen. Can you hear that? Yup. Nothing. No kids rummaging through the Lego box. No cat yowling. No builders hammering. It's just me. For the first time in months. Hurrah.
So I thought I'd have a go at something a bit different. I saw this idea for a flower ages ago, & squirrelled it away in my head.
I used my Silhouette SD to create & cut out the leaf shapes from 3 diamonds, stamped them with the text pattern, then coloured the outside edges with ProMarker. By folding the outside diamonds in half & sticking them behind the middle diamond, you get a nice 3D effect. All 8 were then stuck on a circle to create the flower.
Adding a brad & a couple of punch squares coloured with the same pen finished the embellishment.
A couple of strips of stripey paper for ribbons & 3 tiny squares in the bottom corner to balance things out, et voila. I just hope it's CAS enough for the challenge.
