Speedy's Friends Challenge #58

Good morning!! Time for another challenge at Speedy's Friends. This week is a easy one, just have a paper or silk flower on your card. For my sample I pulled out one of my favorite stamps by Mark's Finest Papers, " Gerber Daisy". Colored it with Copic's. I made the flower out of 3 daisy flowers from Prima , leaves are from "Autumn Fun" I even made up extra's as you never know when you will need a leaf or two for a flower and this leaf is gorgeous. I cut the wire off of some roses that Faith sent and wrapped it around my paper piercer for the curly things. The inspiration for my flower corsage came from that beautiful Prima DP. All the supplies used to make this card came from MFP.


We would love for you to join us and show us your gorgeous creations. You could even win a stamp set from MFP. You can find more info on this challenge Here.

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by.
