Sketch 55 Day 1

The week we have a sketch to follow, and I must admit I was struggling, I couldn't think what I was going to do and then as sometimes happens I thought punch some circles, add embellishments on each.  The embellishments could also be punched so off I went and found my flower punch, circle punch and I was away.

So here is my card

What I used

7 x 7 base card
Circle punch in 2 sizes
Flower punch
Mirri card silver
Craftwork cards 8 x 8 patterned paper
Scrap of patterned paper
Piece of white thin card
Adhesive
Self adhesive gems for centres of flowers
Sentiment stamp

This is how I completed the card

1  Take a scrap piece of thin white card and punch 9 circles with the smaller punch.

2  Do the same with a suitable thickness of silver card punching 9 circles.

3 These 2 sizes of circles are then layered together

.

4  Take the flower punch and punch 16 flowers from a patterned paper

5  With 8 of these punched flowers add some dimension by curling the petal in your fingers and then pulling them up to form a cup shape.  then layer one flat and one dimensional flower on to each other.

6  Take the base card and cut 1 matt in silver and 1 in the patterned Craftwork Paper

7. Take the base matts that have been cut in the silver mirri and the Craftwork card patterned paper and attach to the base card. 

8  With the final white circle stamp the sentiment and then layer with silver and attach to the centre of the card 

9  Place the remaining circles so that you have 3 rows of 3 circles

10  In the centres of the flowers add an embellishment of your choice.  They could be small buttons, adhesive gems, glitter and glue, stickles glitter glue

11  Finally I added a bow under the sentiment panel
