This is my 1st attempt at a Double-Slider Card
This is my little corner of the world where I can share the crafts that I have created. My hope is that I will help inspire or spark a creative moment whenever needed. Along this Journey I will try to challenge myself and are more than happy to have you join me.

Upcycled Encyclopedia Flowers
This is a tutorial explaining how I created the flowers that are depicted in my background picture.
1. I used my Sizzix Big Shot and the flower die shown in the picture. There are many different styles of die and I'm sure your favorite will work as well.
2. I layered about 10-15 pieces per flower, It's ok to mix styles of the layers. I used my Crop-a-Dile to add an eyelet to secure the layers. (Yes, a brad would also work.)
3. I then crushed/crumpled the flower. Each layer at a time and then the flower as a whole.
4. Next, take the flower in one hand and lightly dab and drag your ink pad all over the edges of the flower. Some of the best ones are flowers that used multiple colors of ink.
5. The finished examples are seen below.... Hope you enjoy! Try it out and feel free to share your examples.
