ALL SQUARED AWAY - 2 tries


This really wasn't a set I had planned on buying.  The flower design is actually a square die but I trimmed off the "frame" of the cut piece that I had cut in dark green card stock.  I then cut three of each of the flowers in the three colors.  The colored pieces were added with foam dots.

I thought I was being so careful to get the flowers straight across.  The ribbon appears to be straight but if you look closely the tops sort of slant down to the right.  I added the sentiment above to help take away from the fact that things weren't straight.


I wasn't happy with my first attempt so I tried again.  This time I drew a very light pencil line across where the top of the flowers should be. Much better result.

Thank you for coming by today!
