MDUC #198 Flowers and More Flowers (Make your Own)





 Hello my friends,
What a lovely day today :-)) Let's have some fun and exciting outdoor activities !! Play with butterflies and flowers.....is it a good idea? I know you have a very sunny and warm weather out there in Europe, but please remember me when you have fun, we have extreamly HOT weather here and I could rather stay inside my room than going out for the sunburnt..haha....

This week challenge is a bit challenging for me as I always use ready-made flowers which I bought from I am Roses.com or Prima Marketing, and of course Magnolia. But this week we want to challenge you to make your own flowers. Whatever flowers=)) It's really fun to try different types of flowers, but finally I made these very simple flowers that I used to make long time ago !
I used Magnolia patterned paper to make my spiral flowers, you can view the tutorial I made HERE.
The white flower is peonies which I made from Magnolia Doohickey Peonies, a new released not long ago.

 Some Magnolia Doohickey dies to spice up the layout, which was really fun. I distressed with Ranger Walnut Stain ink. The white and beautiful flowers ribbon was a gift from my teamy, Yulis. Thank you very much.

 I do hope you got inspired and make your own flowers. Hope to see you in this week challenge at MDUC. While you are reading this post, I am busy packing and preparing for the Magnolia Day event in Surabaya, Indonesia. The first Magnolia Day in Asia, do share the happiness with us, 29th May, sure I will bring you the lastest news and photos when I come back.

See you soon ! Have fun !

Ying, most of Europe is suffering from very cold November temperatures, only in Scandinvia it is better. So we are having the heating working and no outdoors, as it is raining and raining and even it was snowing in Tyrol and Salzburg!!!!! So I am dreaming of going out and looking for the Butterflies like little Tilda does on your beautiful card! I love your handmade Flowers!!
Hugs and please send some heat over!!
