Peet's Flowers and a Final Sale

Somehow a while back I discovered Peet's blog, I think it was via The Pink Elephant blog, and I have been a follower (and studying her work intently!) ever since. For a real treat, please be sure to visit her blog!! http://scrapalbum.blogspot.com/

Peet makes the most amazing shaped cards and I've been wanting to try her flower card for a while...so I printed off the template and increased it size wise on my copier for the different layers...my card is 4.25 x 4.25 so it actually fits in an envelope and you don't (can't!) have to write much on the inside of the card.



I used some of my favorite paper - Mimi Soar with it Collection and the new version in our catalog is double sided. So wonderful...


I hand cut the bird and it's fashioned after the Nestabilities style bird...Hello Friend is from the ever popular Tag Tidbits set from The Angel Company. I made that little ribbon flower to and I believe this may be the first time I used my Sizzix leaf die cut...so glad I finally did!
These products can be found on my website, http://chris.ismyangel.net/products

Be sure to check out the Discontinued Accessories section. Everything there is 25% off and it's only good through tomorrow, Monday, 27 July and then it disappears...snatch up some great embellishments or paper packs while you can or the Designer Dries Clear glue that I used on this project...it's wonderful!
