Pressed Fun Flowers Card

I saw some pressed flower cards and decided to try making one and I love the result! This is the make-n-take card from my previous workshop. I cut out the flower from the new Fun Flower Sizzix die from the Occasions mini catalog as well as the little leaves, scallop oval, and top note dies.

We adhered the flower and leaves to the oval and put them in the Finial Press embossing folder. Then we layered it on the so saffron top note die and added Happy Birthday from the Perfect Punches stamp set layered on some Riding Hood Red punched out with the Designer Label Punch. We added some old olive ribbon around the top note die to finish the card. So fun!

Valentine's Bird Purse Tote

Isn't this little purse cute? I saw this idea on Becky Robert's site, Inking Idaho, and made a little box between the ovals to put some treats in.

I started by cutting out two ovals with the Scallop Oval Sizzix die. I trimmed the bottoms by lining up the edge at 2" on my trimmer. I also cut one chocolate chip oval and cut it in half for the handles.

I created a little box with 3" x 6-1/2" piece of chocolate chip cardstock scored 1" lengthwise and at 2", 3", 5" & 6". I added a scallop circle and a cute little Sending Love Bird to the front.

This is another fun way to send some love on Valentine's Day!
