Hi Girls! Are you ready to go 3 Dimensional with Just Us Girls?
This week we are presenting you with a 3 Dimensional / Template Challenge & I am the Hostess! We would like to see you add a 3-D flower to your project! For a lil' inspiration, I made a How To Video Tutorial featuring paper tissue flowers that I promised! I can't wait to see what sort of 3-D flower you make!
For my project, I made a paper tissue flower for my card using the Spellbinders Blossom dies.
I inked up a sponge dauber with SU Close to Cocoa ink & smudged it around all the edges of all layers to give it a soft appearance.
In this close up photo, you can get a better view of the layers & dimension.
