Punchcraft Flowers Photo frame-Recycled Project


Punchcraft Flowers
I enjoy Recycling and had a blast during the Crafty JC Recycling Challenge.As part of the Top 3 in the Recycling challenge I am Guest DT for this months Color Pallette Challenge.
CJC-11_Multi

For My DT inspiration I chose Color Palette 1 with the colors burgundy red,green and yellow  and have a recycling project to share! 
I recycled some cardboard from a box into a DIY homemade Photo frame.Here is the link for tutorials for DIY Photoframes
Homemade Photoframe
I stuck some pretty flower patterned corrugated paper on the cardboard and decorated the homemade photoframe with punchcraft flowers.
Punchcraft Flowers
My bloggy friend Anita is my inspiration for Punchcraft-She can rightly be called the Queen of Punchcraft. 
Punchcraft Flowers
I made the roses using a 6 petal flower punch. The glossy green leaves were handcut from corrugated paper.

The golden brown flower buds is another bit of recycling-they are from an old broken flower basket I had saved!I used double sided foam tape and the glue gun to achieve the 3 D look.
Punchcraft Flowers
If anyone is interested I can work on a tutorial for the punchcraft roses.These roses can also be made without a punch  so no need to rush out and buy a punch !

I hope you liked my humble punchcraft flowers. Do leave your comments.
Edited: This creation won at Desert Islands
