Pink Tissue Flower Card

Please click here to enter Cuttin' & Stampin' Ch 14-8 All Boy. Please click here to see my Pirate Birthday Tag.

Please click here to enter One Stitch At A Time Ch202 Anything Goes. Please click here to see my Wishing you warm fuzzies card.

This is my first time making a flower using tissue paper. The pink & pink/white tissue paper is from Victoria's Secret. When you make a purchase at VS the store puts the tissue paper in the bag that they put your item(s) in. The green is a scrap piece of Christmas tissue paper.

The flower & leaves are made using Spellbinder dies.

Stamped a Hero Arts background. First time using the Design Block Flourish stamped background. I had to practice with it before getting all the design to stamp. When that happens you flip the cardstock over and try again which is what I did and on the 2nd try I got it to stamp close to all. Filled in some areas with a black marker. Stamped HA sentiment 'happy birthday' on one of the green leaves. When stamping on tissue always put some paper under it since the ink goes thru.

  2. There is just something so great about tissue paper...I agree! Great way to reuse some from a purchase. I cannot seem to throw out VS bags! I like that background flourish, too.
