Mix10 - Circle Flowers
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: BobbiesGirl

 This is my card for my second brave try on this Mix-A-Bility challenge. This one I did alone. Yay for me. My background is a piece of Recollections cardstock. I put purple brads in the center of the black flowers on the CS.

For my flower, I used a coffee filter. This is my second try. The first is in the trash. I cut around the coffee filter to make it smaller. Then I punched 8" holes all around the edge to thread some embroidery floss. Next I sprayed the filter with watered down reinker and dried it with a heat tool.

So far so good. I threaded it and made a sort of yoyo. I love yoyos so this came to mind immediately when I saw the challenge. It doesn't look like a pretty sewn flower but I guess it can be a pressed flower. I attached it with a large brad - RAK from Celisa - and added Star Dust Stickles. If this is a test, I'm hoping for a passing grade.

No, this is not a test! It's an invitation to have fun and try something you might not have otherwise!

Great idea using a coffee filter for a flower! I think your card is charming!

Welcome to the MIX challenge, and hope to see you play again this Friday!

I have come to the conclusion that buying craft supplies and actually using them are two separate hobbies.

Your diligence has truly paid off. The flower turned out perfectly. As soon as I saw it I thought 'yo yo' ! Love the colours too.
