 Cutting out , this is not the fun part for me   For those of my friends who know me , i dont do fussy cutting  much, so today this  is rare , this is why its raining here in sunny Queensland lol

Cutting out ,  Heartfelt creations  paper orchids,  Sospeso Transparente orchid  flowers,  the  Botanic Orchid   stamp & Die set

For those who dont know about these Sospeso flowers,(  picture at the bottom ( flat and close up  molded)  they are on a sheet which you cut out , then  shape with  a candle, ( please make sure you dont burn yourself )  molding  tools and a  soft  mat i get  mine from  Auzz Trinkets & Crafts
www.atcraft.com.au - you should check these out  have seen they are  on special at the moment

The molding only takes a few seconds,  so  have everything ready  on the table as you have to work quick &
place the  flower and  shape it with the tool (  there are several sizes ) onto the mat   this gives a depth  and shapes  the  flowers,  I have lots of designs, to choose from,    will go  with the  orchids today,
Next was cutting out the  orchids from the papers collection , Also the bird,  i dont usually add birds to my layouts , but it did look nice,  hovering amongst the flowers ,
  now for assembly time
i always love to work  in a triangle as if im making a flower arrangement , my biggest  flower in the corner  i have placed down the bling,  leaves,  and then assembled the flowers  on top

 Hope you like my layout ,

I had cut  all mine out  of the ones i used today, then thought of  a photo,  this is only a sample of another one  i have  


i think this is 

Symmetrical i work with my flower arrangement 


Thanks for stopping by .
