A card today using an idea for using snippets which I saw on the 'Creative Minds Kind Hearts' Facebook group page. The original card used squares and square frames. I thought I'd use circles, a stamped sentiment and a few flowers and pearls on my card to put my own twist on the design.
I had quite a few snippets of patterned paper, all from the same paper pad from The Range. I used several different sized circle punches and made a few punched flowers too from the snippets. I stamped the image first using a stamp I bought in Hobbycraft ages ago and never used. It was a bargain buy, which from memory cost 50p or a £1. I randomly placed the circles around the sentiment and attached a few flowers with pearl centres. The turquoise mat was a larger snippet of patterned paper.
I am joining in the following challenges:
