Mojo Bloom...

Hiya!
I haven been really busy lately with work, study and church commitments so haven't had a lot of time to play, but I did get some time the other day to play along with this week's Mojo sketch and I combined it with the current CR84FN colour challenge:

I played around with creating my own paper flower embellishment and came up with this:


I created the flower using the Fun Flowers Big Shot die. I cut 8 flowers (3 Pretty in Pink, 3 Pink Pirouette and 2 Regal Rose) then layered them up alternately, having spritzed each with water and scrunched them. I added a large pearl brad through the centre and curled the petals of the inner-most flower. The leaves were die-cut from Old Olive cardstock and the Little Leaves die. The strips of DSP are from a retired SU pack in Certainly Celery. I added some lace trim and Pretty in Pink grosgrain ribbon to finish off. The sentiment is from an older Verve set, stamped in Regal Rose.

That's all for now - thanks for stopping by!
