Have a Lovely Birthday

Hi friends! It's my turn to show you a creation using my gorgeous Wild Orchid Crafts flowers!!! This will be my last contribution to as a Design Team member. Unfortunately, things are too busy for me to craft as much as I want to, so I have had to step down from all of the teams I was on. When I do craft, you will continue to see me use my very favorite embellishments from Wild Orchid Crafts since they have by far the most wonderful selection to make our cards so special!!!

I used the gorgeous Walnut Trellis Rose, Mahogany Trellis Rose, 2-Toned Brown Chrysanthemum, 25mm,15mm and 10mm Open Roses, and Tulips!!! I made the leaves myself with a MS punch and the left over stems from my WOC flowers.

I used the very pretty Cerridwen from Saturated Canary and colored her with distress inks.

I have a few more details on my blog if you would like to visit me.

Don't forget the 10% off deal with Wild Orchid until June 5th!! What a bargain!!!!

Hugs, Dena

WOC flower arrangement was made using a 40mm Trellis Rose, Chrysanthemum, 25mm Tea Rose, 15mm Roses, Sweetheart Blossoms, 4mm Rosebuds, Gold Glitter Holly Berries, and then finished it off with a small sequin butterfly.

Decorated Dress Form

Hi there Wild Orchid Friends, it is Kylie here today to share with you a project I made for my Mum for Mother's Day. My Mum sews so I thought the dress form decorated with sewing themed embellishments and flowers would be a nice pressie for her.

The dress form is chipboard from Twiddleybitz and I've painted it with white acrylic paint and gone crazy with my Wild Orchid Crafts flower and embellishment stash.
