Punch ... Curl ... Assemble = Flowers

First and foremost I would like to show you what I bought at IKEA =)  If you are into art journal of any kind this IKEA find is awesome for such projects. It's simply a ready-made SMASH Book =)   I had to grab all the last pieces due to it's price - very very cheap if you are an IKEA Family member.  So many ideas flowing in my mind ....it's the execution I have to be patient with because my son is sick (hoping it's not influenza) so I can only make simple things this day or maybe until tomorrow ... we'll see by Saturday.

Where do you shop your craft items?  In my case, if it's in UK, I shop at Crafts U Love.  If it's in USA, I shop at Oh My Crafts, Custom Crops, Just-Rite, and Cricut Machine.  But if it's here in Sweden, I shop at Slojd-Detaljer, Scrapbruket. Scrap Room, PY Hobby, CCHobby, Stellas, Magdas, Scapamer, and of course the ever accessible Panduro.  All the above mentioned stores I access through Internet except for Panduro wherein I shop both at internet or directly at the store.

Having mentioned Panduro, I bought 2 sets of flower punchers due to it's 50% off sale.  I just couldn't resist although I have the cricut cartridges to help me make different kinds of flowers in different sizes.  Sometimes, it's much easier to use other tools aside from cricut especially when you're in a hurry and need to make something outside the craft room. 

I literally used left-over small bits and pieces of cardstock by Tilda.  I just couldn't throw any scraps thinking that I know I can make use of it one way or another.

I like both and I love the fact that I may certainly use these flowers in any of my projects =)

Now back to what I'm creating this day which I hope will be posted later .......

until then.....
