I am hostess for this week's Twisted Sister Challenge, and my challenge is to make a card using the Pounded Flowers Technique!
It is one of my favorite techniques. Joan Ervin introduced it to me in a VSN challenge. Basically, just run flowers thru the cuttlebug on cardstock. Now is a great time to make a several backgrounds, as our flowers are starting to be at the end of season. These are Gomphrena. I always think that bg is too pretty to cover up, so it is CAS. Please feel free to join in on the challenge and use keywords TSC1010. TFL

Sharon, your pounded flowers came out so beautifully I thought for sure it was designer paper! How fitting to let it shine and create a CAS card! I have never been quite that successful with that technique!
This is pretty Sharon. My flowers are all gone but I do live in the country so I'm sure I can find some wild flowers. Sounds like fun. I've never tried this before. I like your results.
