Flower Tutorial and a CAS Card

Hello friends,

How are you doing?? Hope you all  had a great with friends and family during this festive season. I did lots of gift packaging this month and also made few cards which i will be sharing with you all soon. Today i am sharing a simple flower tutorial and a CAS card. This flower can be made without any punch or die. I have used this flower in New Year Card and Baby Mini Album
Draw three circles of diameters - 2", 13/4" and 1". You can choose your dimensions.

Tear all the three circles with hand. Do Not Use Scissor.

Now give 4-5 slits in each circle to make petals of the flower. Beware not to cut the center of the flower.

Distress edges of each flower . I have used Chalk Pastels. You can use distress or any other ink . Here is my tutorial on Chalk Pastels.

Layer the petals one above the other

Add a pearl in the center and flower is ready to use

I am sharing a Clean and Simple Card made from paper scraps and die negatives. I have also used this flower in this card. But instead of chalks it is distressed with memento dye ink.

CAS Card with Bunting

Hiii friends !! I am back with another CAS card.

The card is very simple but i loved the way it has come out. One new thing that i did for the first time is bunting from scraps. The sentiment has a crackled effect and that appeared as a result of mistake that i made-improper inking of stamp. I coloured those cracks with colour pencil and like the effect.

Supplies Used -
Cardstock - Local buy
PP - Scraps of DCWV paper
Sentiment stamp - Inkadinkado
String - Local Buys
Embossing Folder - Spellbinder M-bossabilities
