Bloomin’ Spirelli
February 28, 2009
Spellbinders is having a contest (check it out)! Most of the Spellbinder dies I have are nesties, but I wanted to do something different. One die I do have is from the Spirellabilities collection. I really love spirellis – I’m not much of a fiber artist, but these I can do 
I checked out the Spellbinder thread that I have and decided on purple. I don’t have much in the way of purple paper, but the Guidelines stack from PTI was perfect.
I’m still working on purchasing a good collection of “focal” sentiments. I only have one and it didn’t really work here (the font was wrong). So I improvised. I liked the scripty font used in the PTI Spiral Bouquet set. To fill up the other space on the white panel, I stamped a old background I have from ScrapGoods – it is a listing of flowers in latin. I topped off the spirelli flower with a metal flower embellishment from K & Co.
This layout fit perfect with the spirelli flower I created! The layout is a Sketch For You To Try (from i{heart}2stamp). Jen is also giving away blog candy this week – so check it out!.
Ink: Plum Pudding (PTI), Spring Moss (PTI);
Paper: (all PTI) Lavendar Moon, Plum Pudding, Spring Moss, White, Guidelines patterns;
Other: Spirellabilities die (Spellbinder), leaf die (Spellbinder), spirelli thread (Spellbinder), metal flower accent (K&Co), ribbon (PTI), stickles;
