Happy Day Spring Twine Flowers


Hi there, I don't know about you, but I sure am ready for spring weather to be here soon! Inspired by the warm days to come, I made this card using bright colors- and what's more perfect to accent bright colors than The Twinery twine??

To create these flowers, I simply punched out 3 circles- one large, one medium, & one scallop. I punched a small hole in the center of each & stitched twine through. To give them a finish, I used a little adhesive & attached a button to the centers.
I also added a little dimension to the sentiment by stitching twine through the top & botom.
Thanks for stopping by today- I hope I've inspired you to give these techniques a try :)
Have a great day!




Supplies used:
The Twinery Baker's Twine in: Honeydew, Lemondrop, Pink Sorbet, Charcoal, & Mandarin
Paper: Echo Park (yellow dots), KI Memories (green dots), K&Company (pink), American Crafts (card & clouds)
Embellishments: Prima flowers, Echo Park (Happy Day), Michaels (buttons & blue rhinestone), Queen & Co. (orange pearl)
