I am always finding pressed flowers in between book pages, so after experimenting with stamping on pressed rose petals ( please see this post) I thought I would try using punches with them. I began by gluing my pressed rose petals onto card, I used a Pritt glue stick. I then used the beautiful Fiskars punch to create lots of rose petal butterflies.
I created a sky background with watercolours, and stamped the lovely little Phyllis Harris Stamp by
Unity onto card.After giving her some colour I carefully cut around her, and adhered her to the background. I wanted the butterflies to float her up and away to a magical land. So I arranged the butterflies above her and drew a line from the butterflies to her hands. I stamped the brilliant quote next to her, I love that sentiment - imagination really can take you anywhere...
Thank you for stopping by, I am off to Alexandra Palace tomorrow for the big craft show.
