WILD ABOUT FLOWERS


When I opened the new kit Fly Away Home by Snickerdoodles Designs I fell in love with the flowers.  I knew I could convert them into some fun projects.


              These were used for a Birthday lunch with friends.  A place card for each of us.



   I made three different sizes for each flower and strung them together with a bead on a wire.


This is an altered cover for a box of chocolates.  When the candy is gone; you just have to replace the pieces and you always have a fun box to set out.





The background pages are all color coordinated.  So both sides of the flowers, leaves and wrapping paper all compliment each other.

MINI PHOTO ALBUM




This 4x4 Mini Album is a Birthday gift for my friend, Priss.  I used a wonderful digital kit called "Misty Autumn" by Karen at Snickerdoodle Designs.  The moment I saw this kit I knew I had to make an album.  I love the rich tones of Autumn used throughout.  Beautiful backgrounds.





                                                     These are a few of my favorite pages.
