The challenge is to make a set of 4-6 floral embellishments and adhere them to a sheet of acetate. Then, make a card using one of the same flowers. The idea is that you would tuck the sheet of embellishments into the card and send it to a fellow crafter. Genius, right? As it happens, some of us who frequented the Paper Crafts magazine message board had done something similar a couple of years ago. We called it Card Candy. We'd make the embellishments according to a theme, adhere them to a sheet of acetate and package them in a cellophane bag with a cardstock topper. I still have many of them in their original packaging because, of course, they're too cute to use. (I know ... I'm working on it.) Without further ado, here's my entry:
Supplies: Maison by Brenda Walton for K & Co. (patterned background paper), DCWV Old World Stack (purple patterned cardstock), Bazzill Basics (black cardstock), American Crafts (ribbon), Cricut George and Basic Shapes cartridge (flower cutouts), bling unknown.
That rhinstone in the center really makes these pop!
