Boho Blossoms and Five Petal Flower Punches

.
Hi

What a fabulous long weekend (Queens Birthday for those of you outside of Australia) it has been. The weather is as always this time of year, just perfect.

My friend Jill and I had our market stall yesterday, boy it was really quiet. Lots of people away camping was more than likely the cause. Still, Jill and I enjoy ourselves anyway, chatting and having coffee and discussing future plans for JeMbellish.

While I have been busy working on a secret project (you will have to wait a couple more weeks yet before it will be revealed) I have managed to whip up a quick card for today's post.


For this card I decided to pull out a couple of punches I haven't used before. Stampin Ups Boho Blossoms and the Five Petal Flower punches.

I made this a square card because I wanted to use up some of the Stampin Up 6x6 designer paper pads that I have that my wonderful Mum, Shirley- Anne, sent up to me a while back.

The flowers and stitching on the pink circle behind the image have been hand drawn with a white gel pen and I also drew some detailing around the edge of the scollop circle with a pink stampin up marker.

I am linking this card up to :
