Flower Garland

This month there's a lovely template featuring a set of flowery components that you can put together in any way you fancy.

I printed the various shapes directly onto patterned paper then cut them out to make this scrapling card.

Scraplings are made from those strips you have left over when you cut a square card blank from a sheet of A4.  I love this tall, narrow shape and the way it lends itself so well to going "off the page"

Here I've used Kraft card, some black Bazzill and a strip of patterned paper cut from one of the 12x12 sheets in the last Quirky Kit box.  The squiggly design was the perfect corner piece for this card.
