The Perennial Flower Punch

June 26, 2019

Recently, I had a Luv 2 Create team meeting. We try to get together every month. At this meeting I had decorated water bottles for the team.

I really like the way that the flower turned out. It was my first time using the Perennial Flower Punch. First I wrapped the bottle with a piece of Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper striped Petal Pink around the bottle. It measured 1 1/2 x 8 1/2. I crinkled up the paper like a ball of trash, pulled it back out, and used it that way.

Punch out three of the flower from Petal Pink cardstock. Crinkle these up, too. Add them together a little askew with glue dots. The center is in Early Espresso punched with the 1/2" circle punch.

Trim leaves from the Mossy Meadow leaf paper that is also part of the Magnolia Lane DSP. Add these to the back of the flower.

The tag is part of the Stamping Your Way to the Top stamp set that is a supply item for demonstrators. Stamp in Mossy Meadow and cut out with the Stitched Nested Labels dies. Add to the bottle with dimensionals.

I gave each person at my meeting a baggie with supplies and gave them a challenge. Create a card with the supplies you have. It's OK to use the flower from the bottle, but not necessary.

Here is my card for the challenge. By the way, those on my team who complete the challenge get a package of dimensionals.

My base is Early Espresso. There is a piece of Magnolia Lane paper cut at 4 x 5 1/4. I took the wrapper for the bottle and the flower and added it down the side. Run the Petal Pink Organdy Striped Ribbon across the card. Stamp Thank You on a Whisper White scrap in Early Espresso. This is from the Beginner Brochure. The stamp set is Magnolia Blooms. Cut this out with the Stitched Shapes Dies. Add to the card. Cut out a few more leaves from the Magnolia Lane paper. Add a bow of the Petal Pink ribbon. Quick and cute!

I have had a few people accept the challenge. Here are their cards.
