Totally Stampalicious Monday -- Flowers


Welcome to Totally Stampalicious Monday.  We were challenged this week to make one (or more) of the homemade style of flowers out in craftland and add it (or them) to our card/project.  I used a punch by EK Success.  It is like a border punch, but then you roll the punch pieces up into a petaled flower.  I haven't quite mastered these yet.  I know what to do, but I have a hard time getting the petals to be evenly distributed.  Oh well, I get better each time I try.

I used this sweet turtle set from Totally Stampalcious from their Bugaboo Line.  I just think these turtles are the sweetest with their flowered shells.  Seemed perfect for today's challenge.

Now....crawl, run, or meander on over to the Totally Stampalicious Blog to see the flowers and creations by this fun, friendly, and fabulous DT.  I am sure you will find some inspiration.....and probably a smile or two as well.

This is awesome Joanne, I love the colours of the flowers on the turtle and of course your gorgeous punched flower. Our Michaels has a couple of those punches, but I haven't tried them yet!
