Layout share from Tamara in Townsville

Tamara(Fiskars Demonstrator) has sent this through to me from Townsville in Queensland to share with you all.....this is just one of the lovely layouts that she was inspiring crafters with recently at her Fiskars Demonstration in Spotlight Townsville.......

Tools used:

Fiskars Squeeze Punch - Seal of Approval

Fiskars Squeeze Punch-Square-A-Licious

Fiskars Border Punch – Upper Crest

Fiskars Border Punch – Apron Lace

Fiskars 5” Easy Action Microtip Scissors

Ultra Shape Express (Shape Cutter)

Shape Template – Super Sized Circles

Fiskars Trimmer

Consumables – Patterned paper is Christine Re fromSpotlight. Letters are from Lil’ Davis, Cardstock, ribbon, tissuepaper and small letter stickers all from current Spotlight stock. Bradsfrom my stash!

Make your own Puffy Flower Embellishments:

The flowers are made using tissue paper and the Seal ofApproval Squeeze punch. Place plain copy paper covering both sides ofmultiple layers of tissue papers and punch. This stops the tissue papergetting caught in the punch. Repeat it as often as you want to get thelayers you want. Scrunch up the tissue paper to get some texture, unravelit and layer them on top of each other. Punch through the centre ofthe layers with a small round hand punch or eyelet hole punch and insert abrad. Arrange the petals as you wish and run a coordinating ink padaround the edges and over the top layer to give a little depth, being carefulnot to press too hard.

What a fabulous layout for crafters to see how wonderful the Fiskars Tools are when combined with other consumables......and I must say that I'm a HUGE fan of the red,white and black colour combo.....what do others think? .....how cute are the tissue flowers.......just fabulous Tamara....thanks for sending these through to share.
