Tall Flowers

.

I had a wonderful Sunday, spending time in my studio with Verona and HGTV.



Step 2 is adding the colorful flowers to each stem. Step 3 is adding a tiny bead to the center of each flower.



The finished card. Mom needs about 40 of these for a project so I rounded up and am making 64. The cards themselves will be all different colors as I use up odds and ends from my scrap box.

Speaking of HGTV, my new favorite show is Junk Brothers. Have you seen this? They pick up stuff from the curb that people are throwing away, transform it into something different and cool and put it back where they found it. They ring the doorbell and run. It's fun to watch - and their cute little Canadian accents are a joy to listen to, eh? So far I've watched them turn an old stove into a BBQ , an old TV/stereo console into a bar, a dresser into a kitchen island, a dresser into a baby changing station and a bike into a ceiling fan. (That last one was a little strange.) Anyway, it's a fun show to watch.

Even Paul will watch Junk Brothers with me, surely the only show on HGTV he can stand. The show makes me look at junk by the side of the road differently. I saw a stove and thought "I wonder what that could be."

I saw the bar but the bike fan just didn't make sense to me.

I never remember when they are on.

Have you seen the new designer show where teams work a project and get voted out like Project Runway on Bravo?

I've just gotten hooked on the Junk Bros! I've only seen 1 episode though. A bike into a ceiling fan? I'm afraid that doesn't compute in my wee brain! I keep envisioning a bicycle spinning round and round on the ceiling!

Great cards!
