Fab flowers for your fabulous mam.

Hi everybody,

Jill here, and this week, I've got a fab floral bouquet fit for the finest Mam!


Using the gorgeous new Fab Flowers from Lawn Fawn.


I loved this set as soon as I set eyes on it and knew straight away I wanted to create a huge bouquet using it.  I love all the different flower layering stamps that are around nowadays, and especially loved the more whimsical style of this set as I felt it was more 'me'.
This card was incredibly simple to make; I started by making myself a circle card base, then stamped out the beautiful range of flowers and foliage you get, in all different colours I wanted featured in my bouquet.  I then cut them all out using the matching die set.  Once all my flowers and foliage were cut, I simply built them up over my card base to create a pretty arrangement and, once happy, I adhered everything in place.


I then cut Lawn Fawn's Happy Mother's Day Border from white card, added a strip of teal card behind, and cut around the border to help the sentiment 'pop'.  I added a twirl of twine and added my border over the top using foam tape to give some dimension.
I finished by adding a good scattering of clear sequins around my Fab Flowers, and there you have it.


I'm really happy with how this turned out and think my Mam (yes, it's 'Mam' where I'm from), is going to love it!
Simple?  Yes.  Time consuming?  Certainly.  Worth it?  Definitely!  

I really hope you like it and it inspires you to do something a little different for your Mam's this year :)
As always, everything I used is linked below.

See you next week.
