Wonderful News and Some Flower Clips

Sorry, that this post is going up so late. It has been a crazy busy day and I finally have a few minutes to get my wonderful news up. I am VERY happy to say that Stephanie from Always Crafting has asked me to be a part of the Whimsical Wednesday Design Team. I will be posting cards twice a month along with some VERY sweet and wonderful ladies. I am so happy to get to work with them and I hope you will get the chance to join in some of their fun challenges!!! There will also be a fun blog hop on July 8th starting at 7:00 p.m. EST. I hope to see you there.

I also had a crafting afternoon with a friend and made these cute flower clips for my girls. This one is kind of like a carnation and SUPER fast and easy to make. A little cutting and gluing and it was done, easy peasy. I found a picture tutorial HERE if you are interested.


This next one definitely took more time, BUT I LOVE it to SO much. It required some cutting, machine stitching, hand stitching and gluing. I have some fun ideas for making more of these!!! They are just too cute.
HERE is a link to a tutorial for this flower.


 Have a great day! Hugs- Glora
