Vellum Flowers

We haven't had rain here in a couple weeks and it has been hot hot hot.  Well this morning we woke up to an eerie green sky, 70 mph wind, thunder and lightning and driving rain.

While the storm didn't last long it did some damage.  The wind took out two large sections of the tree in the goat and sheep's pasture. 

 We also lost a good size branch out of the big tree in the backyard.  Luckily it missed the swing.  Riley Kate would have been so upset if it would have broke that old swing. We have some clean up to do today--luckily it's only supposed to be 89 degrees and muggy.  LOL

Now on to the reason you actually visit my blog.  The good stuff...

Here are some vellum flowers I made using the scallop circle punch.

I sponged color onto 8 punched scallop circles, scrunched them up and make these cute bookmarks. I hope the ladies in the Hostess Club enjoy them. 

I think they are so neat. They look almost like carnations.
