Today's cards are completely CAS- All of them for CraftyJC. Though CAS is not my style, I occasionally enjoy making them.. :)But then, I have to restrict myself, the feeling of adding something more to the card.. :)
This is a simple Pattern Paper weaving, with scraps of leftover PP.Nothing much to say abt it..
This card is stamped with the Stampin up Best Dad Ever stamp set.. I love this set!and I like the dash of red in the card.
This card is also from the PP scraps.. The Butterflies are PTI diecuts,RAK from P.I am playing along this week's PDCC#104 colors
and MyTimetoCraft-White
WeeMemoriesWMC#73-Free for all
Hope you liked the cards!
Today's Tutorial
This is the tutorial I made for my Featured blogger post in Kavitha's blog.Kanzashi flowers can be made in satin cloth, ribbon,velvet and paper too..
Take felt in 2 colors(can be done in single color too)
Cut small squares with it.. need not be perfect, you can also try with circles.. it gives a different flower :)
Fold the squares in half
Join the below two ends
Secure the folds with safety pins
After it is done for all the 8 pieces, Sew them one by one ,removing the pins
Sew together the last petal with the first one and knot it below
Fill the center with button or brad or any other embellishment. Finally, the Kanzashi flower!! Is nt it gorgeous?!!
Nice work Priya! Your CAS cards have come out very well indeed! :)
