Super Simple Tulip Card

This was seen on Pinterest and I tracked the source to Karen.     Bloom cartridge was used to cut the tulip and I punched the leaves, circles, and the scalloped border.  The black dots were done with a Pearl Pen and I used a brad to attach the bow portion on the ribbon.

Since the design is so simple, I made a total of sixteen cards.  They're all blank inside and can be used as stationery by the OWH soldiers.

Tulip Card

A friend from stamp club sent me the instructions to make tulips using a Stampin' Up five petal flower punch.  It intrigued me enough to try my hand at doing it.  You punch the flower and then just remove two of the petals and fold the lower one up to make the outer petal.  It's not difficult to do at all.  Adding some ink will give the petals dimension.

The flower stems and the bird are also a Stampin' Up punch.  I used Design Studio and my George cartridge to cut the oval mats.
