Here is this weeks Sketch and our Design Team Creations:

For this weeks sketch I decided to create my own version of the Prima Flowers "Grand Dame Mermaid" Here is a picture of the package.

Now here is my version.....

This was created using the following materials


Spellbinders nestabilities dies
Satin fabric
Organza
Lace (airbrushed)
Glitter applied to the edges with Crystal Effects
Liquid applique (white)
Prima flower center jewel


I "molded " the petals by spraying the layers with fabric stiffener and laying them in various sized dishes. I dried them with my heat gun. DO NOT  heat the organza layer without sandwiching them between the other layers as they WILL melt ( ask me how I know!) Liquid applique was applied to some edges and heated with the heat gun. The glitter was added to other layers. The flower was assembled with transparent thread and needle. Below is a step by step picture tutorial of some Halloween flowers I did the same way if you are interested. Honestly this really doesn't take a long time......All the same size layers can be cut at once!


Other items used:


Brick wall rubber stamp from CHF
Adirondak paint dauber in pearl (wall)
Recollections swirls
Sizzix die cut frame painted with Ranger crackle paint and rubbed with purple ink
Ribbon
Glitter applied to the wet paint from the wall stamp


Here are the Halloween photos:

Glitter applied to edges

Assembly order of layers


Thanks for stopping by and be on the look-out for some holiday flowers too!
