Don’t you just love getting presents? Especially when they are a surprise! I was really excited to open my mail and receive this gem from my friend and downline Liz Miller. We attended SU Leadership and Regionals in Phoenix several weeks ago, and this paper rosette flower was one of the techniques we learned (click here to view video tutorial). Look at how beautiful this is! I love how she used the Sweet Pea Stitched Felt flowers (117266) as the center and leaves

This beautiful basket is a gift from my mom, Sharon MacKinnon. She is a new demonstrator in my group. She made this for a class she is doing, and was kind enough to give me one. She used the new 2 step bird punch (117191), and the Stampin Up Baskets & Blooms Bigz XL die (113484) for the Big Shot.

I had a go at making the paper flower after watching your video… not as stylish as yours, but I’m working on it… a fabulous technique.

Cute little basket too.

I just found your site through splitcoast and have added it to my favorites! I am new to stamping and love your videos – I just got this bird punch and now I need the die for the basket – beautiful!

A friend sent me the link to your site. Great stuff. I’ve added it to may favorites. I don’t have either the bird punch or the basket die yet, but I’ve had my eye on the die and need to add the bird punch to my must have list! Thanks for sharing the great ideas.
