Only Paper Challenge

Wow!! This was a challenge. I love my ribbon and flowers and of course this little project screamed for it, but I was up for the challenge over at Magnolia-Licioushighlites. It's ONLY PAPER. So here is what I came up with.




Since Tilda is holding a pot of flowers I wanted the card to be the same. Good thing for me I love making flowers too! I punched all my flowers with the Retro flower punch in three different sizes. The centers are VIVA Decor Pearl Dimensional Paint. I believe that was allowed. (At least I hope so!). The paper ribbon is twisted tissue paper. At first I twisted real tight but I didn't like the bow it made so I loosened it a bit. Much better!






This is a big card, LOL!! It stands 7 inches high. I winged it with the size when I was cutting the base and didn't realize how much volume the flowers would add. I wouldn't change it though. I love it!





So here it is ALL Paper! Thanks for the challenge! This was really fun to make!
