Good Morning Ladies!
It's that time of the month (no not THAT time of the month!) for our wild card challenge at Just Us Girls. Maria is this weeks host and she is challenging us to make a flower or two inspired by Tim Holtz. I chose Tim Holtz's Alterations-Tattered Florals to make my flowers. I used the two smaller flowers. I cut them out of coffee filters (cone style) and then sprayed them with Tattered Angels glimmer mists in sunflower and starfish. I then dried them with my dryer tool. I cut a hole in the center of one of the larger of the two flowers and then took four more of the larger ones and folded them in half then into quarters (crinkling them up just a little). I added glossy accents around the hole of the one I used as my base and added the four folded ones around into the center where the hole WAS. I then scrunched them together a little then took one of the smaller ones and did the same fold scrunching also and placed it into the center of my flower. To make my leaves I used the leaf die from PTI and cut them also from coffee filters and sprayed them with glimmer mist in olive vine.
Below is a close up my flowers.
Don't forget to stop by the rest of the JUGS blogs and our
January guest designer Carla Suto for more inspiration!
Deadline to be considered for the weekly "Chic of the Week" is 9:00 PM EST on Thursday, February 3rd. The Inlinkz form will close at that time. Our top pick "Chic of the Week" will be announced on the following Friday morning.
