forever ...



The hand made flower on this ATC is made with several stampings of the HERO ARTS Printed Flowers (three sizes), inked up, a hole punctured in the centre of each flower, all layers put together with a brad, flower misted with water, crunched up, shaped and left to dry. If that sounds a bit complicated, it's not. Also used was HERO ARTS All Occasion Messages, the leaf from Find Joy, the script from Bird Collage and French Post.  I used a small piece of sheet music, patterned paper, I did a little sewing and added quite a few gems.

I hope you had a wonderful day !

Here is another photo of the cubs, they're getting a bit bigger.  They were jumping and playing until they spotted me taking their photograph, then they became very interested in me!
Thanks so much for visiting!

  1. This is such a beautiful card Susanne.
    It is so my kind of style, you have made a wonderful flower, and making it centre stage works so well, your choice of PP with the stitching gives this card good form.
