Shabby Chic Pearl Flowers

Hello All,

This was a very quiet weekend, didn't do much accept surf the net and found the most exciting YouTube tutorial on making shabby chick pearl flowers.  Please go have a look here to see the tutorial.

I played around and couldn't get it quite the same but almost.  Too little pearls and the wrong pearl strings but hey I just used what I had and was quite impressed with the result.

I made two cards with the finished Shabby Chick Pearl flowers to see whether it will look pretty on a card:
The first card I embossed pink paper, used pink pattern paper, my favourite Joy Dies, added some ribbon and Bob's  your uncle.

A close up of my little pink flowers - not too shabby hey?

The 2nd card was embossed stamped a little scroll with a sentiment and added the mini flowers to the card.  Quick and easy :)

I actually love them a lot!!! I can use up all the bling I don't really like using on cards as embellishments and would like to try different ideas now that I have the hang of it and hopefully I will be able to show you more soon.

Have a wonderful week ahead and stay safe.
