Hey everyone. I am back again this week with another creation. Usually I have a hard time getting anything done during the week. When I come home from work after doing chores most times I am just too tired to create. But I have been having coffee in the afternoon around 3ish or so and I come home not so tired....lol
This creation was made with the Fred She Said Hydrangea Bouquet found here. Is this not purdy!!! I used the Martha Stewart Hydrangea punch and punched all the little flowers. The Hydrangea punch that I used is the one with the two tiny flowers and one medium. So I punched a bunch of these and distress inked them with spun sugar first and then worn lipstick over that. I left some white spaces even on the flowers. Then I glued them on the bouquet.
