90th Birthday gift

Hello to you all.
Thank you for visiting my blog.

It was my mother's 90th birthday recently and instead of making a card I decided to make her a flower out of some Artcuts shapes as she likes the wooden shapes.





 
 

I covered five 8cm. hearts with the  beautiful Japanese Chiyogami paper that Artcuts sell and made them into a flower head.

There is a youtube video on Artcuts website showing how easy this is to do.
The centre of the flower has been etched with my message (Artcuts will personalize shapes) , and a stem and leaf added.
I was really pleased with the result as the paper I used is so vibrant.
I keep meaning to do several for myself as I think they make an attractive focal item .

Hope you have enjoyed this project and perhaps you will have a go yourself.
Bye for now and hope you visit soon.

Thank you to everyone who leaves a comment I appreciate it and enjoy reading them.

                                                                   Happy crafting
