Fancy Flowers



This dear friend card is so appealing to me and I think it is the color combination I like the most. I did not make it myself, but it was just too pretty not to share it with you! The ribbon flower was made at a retreat I attended. I love to have layers on my cards and this is so easy to make. Punch or cut your base for the flower size you want. Then cover your base with double sided sticky paper or tape. Next mold your ribbon petals to fit the design and shape your using. Experiement with all types of ribbon and try mixing textures. The blue and green flowers were made by using a punch, and layering the smaller petals on top. I have so many different punches, and I try to make something out of them that they were not expected to be used for. The blue and green flowers were punched with a leaf punch so get creative!

Thanks A Million Design Your Own



This quick and easy card can serve many purposes. Just change the sentiment to fit your needs! The little flowers are punched with our little punches and the pearls give the center the additional WOW! Look at your stamps and find a stamp that can become a vase that is really not one. Send me a picture of your designs.

This is a design your own dragon fly. I made this one with my friend Betty, so get to working on your "design your own". The multi-colored design your own, flower is felt sewn together(wrong sides) and cut 1/4 inch strips up to your stitching. I cut the felt two inches wide and about six inches long. After sewing close to the edge, I then cut my strip that will form the petal. You can cut your petals any size you wish. I then glued the felt to a circle punched out of card stock, and shaped my flower around in a circle. Get busy creating and for new products see my debsegler.stampinup.net!

Vintage Lady

This is one of the vintage layered cards that I made with Betty. You cut several layers of the same pose each one a little smaller and layer them on top of each other. On some of the cards Betty put crystal effects and made them even thicker with a high gloss that added so much to the cards. I love the layered look, so try it for fun.

ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE!

This is a very fun gift for Valentines. My stamp friend Ann made this design and I just love it. The scalloped base of the design is a die cut and she used black cards stock and red card stock.
