Fun Flower Vase

This was a fun and easy project to make.  I saw the idea from a gift and made my own version to give as a gift!  I used the Everyday Enchantment DSP, ribbon, and brads from the 2012 Sale-a-Bration catalog.  The glass is filled with dried garbanzo beans, which went well with my color scheme and added a fun texture.

I haven't posted anything or done any challenges for a long time. (Almost a year!)  I was looking around and was inspired by the Stampin' Celebration Inspiration Challenge #56 so I thought I would give it a try! When I saw this I immediately thought of the boat stamp from the "Moving Forward" Stamp Set.  I chose the colors Marina Mist, Pumpkin Pie, and Whisper White for my card.  

I love the Polka Dot Parade DSP, which is shown here in Pumpkin Pie. I tore fabric strips from the Essentials Designer Fabric and twisted them together to create the 'ribbon.'  

Hope you enjoyed my card!
