Another card for the WT to use metal. I'm working from memory on how to make the twisted wire stems because the cutting I thought I had from an old magazine wasn't in my file.
The card is sized to fit a business envelope.
I made the stem and leaves by taking a long piece of 26 gauge brass wire, folding it in half and twisting along the length, forming the leaves as I went. Then I coated one side of each leaf with PVA glue and stuck on a small piece of mulberry tissue. When the glue was dry I trimmed the tissue close to the wire.
Since the mulberry tissue was out I used it for my grass too, feathering it with a wet brush. I stuck that on with tape, the stem with Glossy Accents. The flowers are Primas, with a (metal) brad in the centre. I added a Hero Arts sentiment cut with Spellbinders Tags Trio and a little (metal) bee charm tied on with some twine.
