Paper flowers are popping up everywhere, even at Pineapple Cove!! Kahala Mall had a fashion show last weekend, and we were commissioned to come up with something for the show. Since the fashion show was showcasing a lot of the clothing from the boutiques downstairs, I thought it would be nice to make some paper flowers to help accessorize the outfits walking down the runway. So I came up with these paper flower pins for the girls to accessorize with.
This is a set of chrysanthemum flowers I cut with my Craft Robo. I cut 5 different layers, then glazed them with Ultra Thick Emobssing Enamel (thanks Annie for turning me onto this amazing product!) I simply used the wooden end of a small paint brush to curl the edges. The pink one is my favorite!
Next is a pair of roses. I cut strips of some of my scrap DP, crinckled up the paper by scrunching it up in my hand. Then wrapping it around in a circle. I punched a little circle as the backing to adhere the rosebuds on with hot glue.
Lastly, these may look a little familiar to you. Remember my dress form that I covered with flowers? I simply took 3 flowers to make this bunch and added a Kaisercraft rhinestone in the middle.
All three projects were super easy and I loved the fact that I was able to use up my scraps!! I'll have more paper flower projects to share in the near future.
Happy Crafting!!

Easter Goodies!
Hope you all had a wonderful Easter Sunday!! I wanted to share some amazing gifts that we got at the store from our friends & customers. You girls are all so talented! We love seeing all the projects you come up with. Thank you so much for all your support!
First one is a scalloped box with Easter Anya, made by Susan. Swiss dots are one of my favorite Cuttlebug folders..I love how the dots theme was incorporated throughout in the ribbon, dp and embossed scallop circle. The goodies inside were so yummy!! Thanks Susan & Jennifer!!
Next up is the cutest milk carton boxes I've seen! Comes in a little carrier from the "digi diva" herself, Claudette. DP is a digital design by Mindy Terasawa. If you haven't seen Mindy's work, it's the cutest and you can check it out on Claudette's blog.
Claudette's coloring & blending techniques with copics are the best, you can see many of her samples throughout the store. I need to learn from her! And I love her attention to the littlest details like flocking the bunny ears, blinging the eggs and the little clips to hold the milk cartons closed. Thanks Claudie!!
Next up are goodies from my friend Eddie. She's always reverse engineering and coming up with her own altered box designs. She designed this little box/bag for her daughters class - I'm so fortunate to be able to get one filled with Yum-O goodies!! Thanks Eddie!!
