Young Crafters Unite Blog Hop

Welcome Bloggers to  Young Crafters Unite  Blog Hop.  If your are coming from Leanne your are at the correct place, if you're just visiting my blog come and join us with this blog hop click HERE to start at the beginning.


 This blog hop is about young crafters not necessarily young at age, but also young at heart or just new to the crafting world or blogging world.


What makes me a young crafter? Well not too much my age (hahaha!!) but the fact that I started paper crafting only 1 year ago and started my blog only 5 months ago.  I have grown passionate about paper crafting and really have enjoyed my journey with my blog.

For this blog hop I created a Layout, with my favorite embellishments which are flowers.  I always make my own flowers, I love creating them.  
This layout was made for my grandmother’s picture when she was and still is a Timeless Beauty!!
I made several different flowers; folded ribbon roses, wired ribbon flowers and paper punch out dried embossed flowers.







You can Click HERE to see a picture tutorial on how to make dried embossed flowers
