Weekly Blog Project - A Dinkie Flower Bouquet

Happy Friday to you lovely bloggers!  Heidi here to share a blog project with you today.

 

 

I have made a little flower bouquet using the gorgeous 'Dinky' stamps 'Flowerhead' and 'Butterfly'. These along with lots of other 'Dinky' designs, can be found on our website HERE.

 

 

They are very quick and easy to make, using scrap paper and card. If you love paper-piecing and cutting out like I do, these little bouquets are right up your street!  They make great little gifts and can be attached to a front of a card blank to show them off well.

 

Here are the products I have used and some instructions for you to follow.  So grab yourself a cuppa and here goes :
