❤️ eTeams Pick Challenge . . .

❤️ Happy Friday everyone,
Just stopping by with a little project I popped together for eclectic Paperie eTeam Picks Challenge hosted by the lovely and very talented Sherry and the theme this time is . . .
Flowers
It`s Friday which means it`s time to link up with Friends with Flair over on Unity Stamp Co.
Check out all the inspiration over on these blogs...stunning!!
❤️ I grabbed a few supplies from the eP Shop . . . 
along with strips of material leftover from my wings  project, cardboard packaging and white Acrylic paint.
1❤️Sooooo easy to make this . . . 
Just slather the white paint all over the cardboard 
{ Impatient I am,so dried it with my trusty heat tool,lol }
Splodged the distress stains on my craft mat , spritzed with water and taking my brush flicked all over for splats of yummy color!
❤️It was time to twist and roll the fabric into fat, fabulous flowers...
Fixed in place with my hot glue gun..owwww...yep I got burnt!!!
Added color with Tim Holtz Distress Stains in Fired Brick and Walnut Stain, mixing them with a little water first.
Chopping pretty paper to make the stems, a little doodle doodle doo was added with a fine liner.
❤️ More snipping of the material to make some leaves, coloring with more Distress Stains . . . can you tell how much I looove Distress Stains yet,lol!
Hands up . . . I have a brand new looove to share with you all . . .
Pink Paislee -Christy Tomlinson Border rub ons . . . they are FABULOUS and so,so easy to apply!!
You will looooooove them.
Amost forgot, I did add a little clear embossing powder in parts for added texture.

Fancy playing along . . . then just click HERE.

❤️
Well that`s all from me today.
Thank you for looking
Happeee crafting
Hugs
XOXOX
