If you arrived here from Amy's blog you are in the right spot, if not you will definitely want to start at Kristy's blog.  Would hate for you to miss out on some of the fun goodies being given away...  now onto my project =)





For my project, I have created this fun 3d floral arrangement that is decorating my kitchen island. Everything is made from paper, including the crate!

Files used:
SVG Cuts ~ Caramel Apple Pie
Silhouette Store ~ Forest Fox & 3d Tulip
Scraptastical Kreations ~ Elegant Floral Flower #2 & KISS Spring (Butterfly)

Paper is Recollections, Core 'dinations, and the Paper Studio

Other miscellaneous items used:
Brads, Tim Holtz Distress Ink, Homemade Glimmer Mist, Buttons

I decorated the crate with the cute little fox. This little guy is just adorable! I love how he turned out. Using a floral block, I covered it with a dark green paper, then hot glued some moss to the top. All the flowers were misted with homemade glimmer mist and layered to give them dimension. Now I don't have to worry about them dyeing ~ they will always be there to brighten my day =)
















Now for some extra fun, I will be giving one lucky hopper this custom made Cameo dust cover!! In order to win my blog candy, you must follow my blog and LIKE my Facebook page (click here!). I will use random.org to choose the winner ~ which will be posted on my Facebook page Wednesday, March 28th after I verify both requirements have been met.


We would like to thank you all for hopping along with us, and we hope that you were inspired in some way, shape or form to create some of the fun projects shared with you today. Your next stop is Rebekah!
