April Showers Bring May Flowers

It is entirely fitting that spring and Mother's Day go hand in hand.  My new favorite crafting technique is making rolled paper flowers.  They are super easy to make and the end result is stunning! 


The pearls in the center of the flowers are quilters pins.  I stick the pins through the flowers and  trim the excess with wire snips.  I did manage to poke a few holes in my fingers, too.  Ouch!   I created the lattice in Cricut Craft Room by arranging a bunch of squares at a 45 degree angle. 

I love having you here!
