February Embellishment Swap



I had to do a stick pin / charm dangle / and handmade flower and attach to a card for presentation...there should be one more..not sure why I didn't take a pic of it...but I'll add it when the swap comes back...I loved making the Gathered Ribbon flower...another new one for my collection......

Twisted Ribbon Flowers



Loved the twisted ribbon flowers..and I have the toasted finger tips to prove it...and again I don't know what took me so long to try these....I tried the wired edged sheer ribbon one...I think I need to try it again but in a narrower ribbon...I like the results but not sure about the width....

Lollipop Flowers






I made these paper flowers for TulipCollector on the Cricuit Swap Board ... my first time to do these and I am wondering why I haven't tried these before ...I love them....the last 2 I added tulle and feathers.....I admit I am totally into making my own flowers now...next I will be trying the acetate and satin ones.....wish me luck!!!
