Nosegay and Doily

The Splitcoaststampers Ways to Use It Challenge this week was to make a card using some kind of doily.  I have some dies that may have passed for a doily but decided to go straight to my kitchen and pull out a plain old kitchen type of doily that I use when making holiday fudge and cookie gifts.  It made a fast and easy background for my soft plum nosegay.

I embossed the cardstock to add texture to my flowers and then punched them out using a Martha Stewart flower punch. I crimped the green paper before punching out the foliage to add texture and dimension. I cut strips of green to add stems to the nosegay.  You can check out my punched flower tutorial and flower spray tutorial if you want more details on how I made my nosegay.

I am so happy it’s Friday and that I only have to work half a day.  I hope you have a wonderful weekend filled with relaxation and some fun stamping time.  My fingers will definitely get inky.
