The first one was created with die-cuts and flowers. I cut two flowers with my Slice "Think Pink" cartridge, and I layered them with Bazzill flowers. The order is diecut, flower, die-cut, flower, and button. So easy! This embellsihments is aobut 4" wide.
I love creating my own pieces for a page. Not only are they unique, but they exactly match the layout.
Try this sometime with whatever die-cutting machine or tool you have. Let me know how it turns out!
