You warm my Heart

I am so glad September has finally arrived! I have been doing my best to keep all the new stamps sets and products from Close to My Heart under wraps as best as I could. I think with Convention and the extra month of pre-view it has been really hard for me. This is my card for this week's color challenge over at Jeanette Lynton's Blog. At first I loved the color combo, and then after trying to use it I found it hard to add the Pear color in. I think it works well with just a little bit of the Pear. I am also really proud that I {Me} made that flower!! I have seen them here and there, and I must say that I may be addicted!
ETA: I missed Tresa show last night, but just watched the recording and she made a flower like this (her's is much more fancy)!! If you want to learn how to make a flower like this click here-she is a wonderful teacher!

Fancy fold flower & Free Template

This week the challenge over at the Heart 2 Heart blog was to create something with a fold. For my project I created this flower using the pleated flower technique, the only difference is that I smashed down the center and added a button. I warned you that you were going to see lots of this ledger paper-I even used some thin strips on the clothes pins.

And in case you want to make your own clothes pin holder I created a template. This little box would also make great post-it note holder or even some mini candy bars for Halloween. You should be able to click on the picture to see it larger, but if for any reason you can view or print it just email me and I will send you a pdf of the template.
