Rubbish swap

I joined a swap on one of my groups and you had to make something with something you would normally throw in the bin, soooooooooo the little roses I made from a few tops off Activia pots as you can see below. Firstly I punched them out then coloured them with Alcohol inks then made them into roses. Just hope it survives it's journey as it is going to the USA, I have wrapped it in bubble wrap and wrote fragile on the envy. Oh well we will see if it gets there in one piece. Hope the lady likes it

Sorry the above photo is not very good but I did not realise till it was too late but it gives you the idea

  5. Love the card, Dot and I'm very impressed with the flowers too! Would never have though of using something like that to make them.
