Fun time for challenges!


The Monday sketch challenges by the folks at ISMAKI are so much fun and are wonderful layouts. I also checked out today’s technique challenge at Splitcoaststampers and they were making terrific dahlia folded medallions. So my card ended up with a blending of both with my flower becoming a variation on the medallions. Here is a link to the instructions for the medallion. The spotted metal was run through the cuttlebug and the main background is one I made and added a SU stamped flourish.

Think Spring!....Jan

    Jan, this is wonderful. I just love the beautiful dahlia. Thank you so much for sharing the instructions to create it. It is similar to teabag folding. This is just so pretty!
