BLOOMING MARVELLOUS

Just had a quick nose on the Daring Cardmakers blog and had to have a quick go as their theme is AMETHYST....and as I still had some Cadbury's (long may they continue!!!) choc's left over from last project sitting on my worktop, I thought they had to be incorporated in the challenge.

(yes amazing I hadn't eaten rest...although some are missing.....STEEEEEEVE.....please leave them alone!!!!)

So I have created a flower (two old envelopes and some wrapping paper) from the very rare Cadbury's chocolate plant!
The flower is simply created by drawing circles with a paintbrush and water, then tearing round the damp line, scuff the edges a bit more and tint with felt pens. Rub the centre of the circles with scissor handles to curve paper, layer and then attach together. The leaves are made the same way (I used a piece of paper tinted as described at the end of the dauber post).

The challenge has a lovely prize this week, a Martha Stewart Butterfly punch donated by http://www.craftobsessions.co.uk/

Wow Diane a card plus chocolate! I would have to send it to myself lol. I love the flower and it's an amazing card to say you've only used recycled bits (apart of the choccy I hope!). Thanks for joining in with Daring Cardmakers this week and good luck with the draw.
