Plant Kindness, Gather Love

It's harvest time at Bella Creations and I chose to go with with HeidiGrace sticker from my stash as my theme.


This is my design team tag that I made as an example for the Bella Unique November challenge.  The Unique challenge always is a technique to try.  This month we're making a coiled flower.  The photo tutorial is in the Forum with the challenge details.  The winner of this challenge, by random draw, will get a product prize from the Flying Unicorn


Since I don't sew, I used wired ribbon, folding the wired sides in towards the middle of the ribbon, then wrapping the ribbon around the foil. The Heidi Grace sticker is from my stash.  I punched two hearts to go with the heart on the sticker. The paper doily is fussy cut from the Scrap Cake "Cozy Xmas" paper collection. The main part of the tag is Riddersholm "Chantilly Dawn". Both paper lines are from the Flying Unicorn on-line store--the sponsor of this month's challenge.

We have two other challenges in the Forum as well.  The Tres Chic is which a style challenge.  This month it's your choice.  Mine of course, is vintage as you can tell by this tag.  The challenge is sponsored by Lindy's Stamp Gang.  The Bella Muse challenge, which is an image to use in your project, is sponsored this month by Nikki Sivils Scrapbooker.   So be sure to stop by Bella Creations and join in the fun!

Beautiful! The lacy strip of hearts is an amazing touch, and the punched ones look like they came with that sticker. You have a great eye!

This would look good dressing up almost any gift, but what comes to mind is, "housewarming."
Very nice, indeed!

P.S. I'm sold on the idea of wired ribbon!
