well, I had an attack of micro tip madness! and look! not a fluffy animal or bird in sight! ( for you lovely newbies, micro madness usually occurs when you realise how many cutesome animals you can create with your stylus and the micro tips! see my gallery for more!) I was looking at the flowers in my garden, many have the 5 petal arrangement so I thought! "I can do that with the micro iron shaped tip!" so I did......and made them into cards for the craft fair me and mags are doing later this month! ![]() ![]() and finaly ![]() I may well do some more if these go well! |

These cards are brill - and just too late I tried making a flower card today for Father's Day; Rachel chose pink flowers and Sam wanted blue, and I added gold and silver highlights ( because I'd not tried the metallics before) but I think I should have studied the real thing first because I just couldn't do the stalks !! Mine are in my gallery - didn't dare post them Catherine's look so realistic. |

Keep it up, thats how I started doing flowers. The micro tip is my most used stylus tool attachment. The purple one looks like Vinca. Good luck with the fair Catherine. Poppy

Hi Catherine I loved your flowers and couldnt wait to have a go this afternoon, I have turned mine into a card for the CarftBoard B'day Comp (I hope you dont mind - I wasnt pinching your idea, I just started with a flowery picture then decided to start cutting them out for some reason, and voila I had a 3d card!!) So Thank You for your wonderful tips and techniques, as you can see I put them into action asap! Keep all your brilliant ideas coming, I love looking for your photos, you amaze me at how much you do!! ![]() Sallyx |
