MC Mar/11, Cola Flower - Serenity

I recently came across a blog (Neelz Expressionz) using Tim's Fanciful Flight Sizzix die to make flowers. Beautiful. Then I've also been using cola cans to make die cut flowers, so I decided to combine the 2 techniques.

I'm also using double masking technique, Asian symbol die cut with my Cricut and enhanced with glitter, and a few other techniques.

And I'm using a product I've never used before for the button - Air Drying Polymer Clay by Lumina - works well.

I'm using a Quietfire Design rubber stamp from the "Gentle Words set.

Anyway to see lots of close up views , details and descriptions, just click on card image. Enjoy.
