Unusual Sunflowers

Hello my crafty friends, 

This was a crafty weekend for me. Of course there's still more on my to-do craft list. There's always tomorrow... LOL 

One of the first things I did was complete my April ATC. April theme was: RECYCLE. Well I decided to do  the only thing that kept sticking in my mind to do: I recycled the lint from my dryer after doing laundry! I won't even tell you what all that lint looked like in a ziplock bag (before I got to the point of using the lint)! OMGosh! LOL 

Anyway as you can see, not much was really used but I covered the brown spots in the sunflowers with the lint. With all consideration, I think they turned out ok. What do you think? 

Check back real soon - much more to come. 

Hope you like and thanks for looking! 

A big wish

Hello my crafty friends, 

I bought this sunflower image at a flea market about a month ago and wanted to do something with it.  This is what I came up with. I think it turned our pretty good. What do you think? 

The sunflower image and the sentiment are raised for dimension. 

I have a friend who likes sunflowers and lime green. With the touch of lime green, I think it'll be the perfect birthday card for her next month. YAY! 

Hope you like and thanks for looking! 

Thank you sunflowers

I wanted to make a thank you card for someone who does so much for others - people she doesn't even know. So Saturday night I made this card for her.  

Okay I know this isn't very Spring-like but I made the outside sunflower and just had to use it! I scalloped the edges on both the yellow and brown. The brown  inner part of the sunflowers I embossed with Swiss Dots for that not so plain look.  For my dimension, both sunflowers are popped and the front yellow scalloped piece is also popped. On the bottom right side, it says: "(Just had to write to say)"; inside it says: "Thank you". I thought it was perfect for her. 

Hope you like and thanks for looking! 

Happy Birthday!

I made this for a friend's birthday. She loves sunflowers. Hope there are enough on this for her! LOL

Sunflower, Happy Birthday

Catch-up card

This sunflower birthday card was made for one of my good friends. Two of her favorite things are: sunflowers and the color - lime green. She was so happy to see two of her favorite things and exactly what she was asking for on her birthday card! She loved it!

The middle of the sunflower is fuzzy as in the real thing. The leaves and sunflowers are also raised.
