So impressed with this guy!

Busker down at Elizabeth and Collins, so inventive with a goon bag alteration into bagpipes // he said he calls it a "HagPipe".
Same same but different!

TISSUE FLOWER

While my husband was painting our bathroom

and stopped asking for help, LOL

I decided to give a try to the

scalloped flowers I have seen

so much lately.

I made mine using purple tissue paper

and my Fiskars scalloped  1 inch punch.

I think I punched through maybe 5 layers of paper

at a time and I did this 3 times.

Then, I used my paper piercer to pierce the layered scallops

in the center, then I added a brad to keep them together

while I scrunched and scrunched layer by layer. Then, with my tweezers

I separated each layer and added a bit of purple stickles to the flower.

Super easy with the tissue paper.

Sorry I couldn't take a better photo to show the details

but I think you got it.

My Purple Tissue Flower

ENJOY!

FLOWERDISCO'S FLOWER

Hello again,

I just finished making a card and making this beautiful flower

CARD FRONT

12 x 4 piece of cardstock

Score at  3-3/4" and 8"

Cut the one side the same shape I did, or any other shape that will fit nice

(sorry didn't measure it, but you get the pic)

I cut two strips 4" x 1 and punched a border on each strip

Attach them as you see on the pic

Make a flower and add a button threaded with floss

Add that flower to the front

( I made my flower with thread)

Stamp a sentiment on the card front

INSIDE

I used George and Basic Shapes to make the frame

I cut the square at 3-1/2" and I used the silhouette feature

I then cut another piece of paper and backed it up, in this case the green paper Added a flower rub-on and

Voila! 

Note: I made this card for a challenge that Kathy aka Alaskacricut has on the cricut message board every night. Check it out! at the

'Rochelle Canteen'


Hidden away in an old school on Arnold Circus, //Rochelle Canteen// serves the.best.food.ever. They are under the Arnold & Henderson //nose to tail eating// umbrella which means you know it will be good. I'd heard about it as it is surrounded by artists studios - plus it was advertised in BUTT mag. Wow.
Back to Rochelles..


The staff are amazing, the restaurant is so low-key its brilliant and the food is better than you ever thought. Oh. And they're only open for lunch.

'Farewells..,


Tom and Tony had to leave...last supper was a must!

They do charge £1 when you pay with card...as Juliet found out. But apart from that, its great. Pizza and wine/beer for a tenner. The mushroom and ham calzone is a winner.

I love Poppy's cardi!!
