May Flowers Challenge by Stephanie

Design Team Member Stephanie submitted this card for the May Flower Challenge.  She said:

I struggle with using flowers on my scrap pages because I love the huge 3D flowers that are popular, so I decided to try the rolled flower.

I chose to do a card because I could put it in a box with a gift and not worry about it getting smashed as it would in my scrapbook. The flowers were pretty simple, I just punched a circle and started cutting in a spiral. I scrunched it up (to make it more pliable), rolled, and then went nuts with Glossy Accents to hold it all together. I had to use hot glue to get the flowers to stick and I'm happy to report that I didn't burn myself. I wanted the flowers and the sentiment to pop, so I kept the rest neutral with kraft and white items. This could have easily been a wedding card, even though I used it for a birthday. Super versatile!

Now it's your turn to take the May Flowers Challenge. See all the details HERE!
