In an English Country Garden

……..that’s the theme for this weeks Scrapbook Sisters Card Challenge. I decided to go back to an old technique that Karen taught us in Scrapbook Class nearly six years ago when the shop first opened, using punches to make flowers.

I used a greenhouse die-cut that I have had in my stash for years and then I used off cuts of patterned papers to create the flowers which I shaped using a paper shaper tool and a foam mat. The swirly corners at the top are cut with a Sizzix die.
