Tracy Evans: Spool of Florals

Spool of Florals

Time for this weeks DT piece for 100 Proof Press.

I have used Flower Face to decorate my spool which I have also created from white card. The top and the bottom of the spool has been stamped with Number Set, Block (I love these numbers for backgrounds) and the centre of the spool has been stamped with the Profit and Loss sheet.

I have used Alpha Parts to add bloom to the centre of the spool and used match sticks to which I have attached the blooms.

Buttons have been sewn to the centres of each bloom to give that pop of colour and I have sponged the edges of my piece with DI vintage photo to give an aged feel.

Thanks for stopping by, Tracy x x
