CONVENTION is coming… time for more Convention swaps!!!! I was totally inspired by Jill’s adorable card HERE, and decided I needed to make a swap card using her super cute flower idea! WAY too cute, Jill!!!
So I made a pile of flowers… a “paper flower garden”…
(I actually ended up making 2x this many!!) 🙂
Then I made it into this card with Chocolate Chip, Kiwi Kiss and Apricot Appeal cardstock:
I used the “Punches Plus” brass template and the paper piercer to add an oval of holes around the punched out greeting.
The flowers are super easy to make.. punch out Apricot cardstock with the Scallop Circle punch and then snip between each petal with Stampin’ Up! Paper Snips!
(thanks to my son for the fabulous photo!)
The flower centers are punched with the 1″ circle punch out of the Bella Rose paper, and the Kiwi Kiss polka dot paper is also from the Bella Rose Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper pack!
If you’d like to know how to make the fun corrugated leaves, check my previous blog post HERE.
Have a FABULOUS day!
As usual, fantastic. I’ll be stalking you at convention for one.
WOW! Patty, these are GORGEOUS! Looks like a lot of work went into these great swaps. Have a wonderful time at Convention!
Really cute Patty! I just got my Bella paper yesterday and have been playing around with it. Now I need to try your flower.
This is so cute! Alot of work you have been putting into all your swaps. I wish I was one of the lucky stampers that is going to receive all your goodies. YOU ROCK!
These flowers are so adorable, and those crimped leaves are too much! I LOVE them!! Thanks so much for sharing these darling ideas!
Have a great day!

I’m looking for a stamp like the flower one and a round one a little bit bigger to make some cupcake decorations. Any ideas where I can find these??
very pretty!
I’m not hooked on Sunflowers like some but by daughter is and I have to say that I think these are sweet! And have, in fact, have given me inspiration on a special gift for my daughter, Erin! If it actually works I’ll make sure to give you kiddos and send you a picture. Unfortunately, I’m not the most talented, lol, but I’m practicing! In the past year I’ve become almost completely bedridden and websites like yours are not only enjoyable to read but encouraging me to try harder. Thank you! Joann
beautiful and creative. Thank you for sharing!
where can I get the punches plus brass template?
Hi Peggy, this post is from 2008 and the products have been retired. I’m so sorry. You might find them on ebay.
