Spring/Easter Cards for a swap

 The swap was to make 4 cards for your partner Spring or Easter or a mix of the two.

I made 2 Easter and 2 Spring and one to include a note for my partner.

I was able to use my egg rosettes that I have been making, which made me happy.

I also did a bunch of print & cut of the umbrella girl and the watering can in various sizes to gift my partner along with a few egg rosettes.

Easy No sew fabric flowers from Dollar Tree scarves

 



Fabric Flowers I made using Dollar Tree scarves.  If you are interested in the process, you can watch the very bad video here process video (I apologize in advance but I am terrible at videos)

Basically, I cut circles out of the scarves, layered them, added a button to the top, flipped the stack over and wrapped a rubber band around the button.  Added a piece of floral wire because I don't trust the Dollar Tree rubber bands.

Used a Dollar Tree pet brush to fray the edges of the flower to shabby them up.

Added a floral center and called it done.

I think I will add some tulle or lace to the next ones to just elevate the finished product.
