Frame your photo with flowers....

Hello folks! It's been a while since my last post. Busy, busy here at the Drys'.  I wish I could discover the art of 'speed crafting'... I might have a bit more time to blog and join you in our little virtual crafty world.  Sheena is ont'telly again today with a fabulous half price shows.  You'll have to be speedy to catch some bargains as I think lots sold out on the 9am show.  I used the wonderful Dahlia stamp on this scrapbook page of my beautiful big sister Betty.
I stamped the large flower head on solid yellow, patterned yellow and patterned pink paper. The leaves I stamped onto patterned green paper.  I then spent a delightful few hours cutting the pieces out and inked all the edges.  I printed out a large picture of my sister and framed it with the flowers which I stuck down with dimensional glue gel.  I popped the details on a couple of leaves.
A ribbon bow and some loops of ribbon were the finishing touches.  
I hope you were able to grab your bargains (jump here if you missed them) 
Ciao for now!
