Little Scrap Pieces Fun Friday Challenge-Homemade Embellishment

Hello Everyone and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion!!!

Hello Everyone! Yippee, it's Friday and time for another Fun Friday challenge at Little Scrap Pieces. Thanks so much for those of you that joined us last week in the challenge!
The challenge this week is:
Homemade Embellishment~Sounds like fun, ha?
It is also being sponsored by our DT member Carri this week:) How fun it that!
Be sure to pop over at Little Scrap Pieces to check out what my amazing team members have created for you :)
My card base is 5 x 5 and the base layer 4 3/4 x 4 3/4 which was embossed with Spellbinders
M-Bossabilities embossing folder~Whimsy. I then cut a strip of pattern paper 2 1/2 x 4 3/4 from the Authentique-loyal collection and adhered it down. The next layer is a strip of card stock
1 x 4 3/4 and which I stamped the sentiment from My Creative Time's Floral Sentiments set and added some fun slate skittles from Carri.
The fun flower is made using Tim Holtz tattered Floral die. I used some denim from a older pair of jeans and ran a piece through the cuttlebug and then again with black felt.
The last flower is a coffee filter flower that I made using #4 coffee filters, spraying them with jack frost glimmer mist and letting them dry. I then cut 8 scallops using a SU scallop punch and adding a brad in the center and then folding them and scrunching them toward the center to form this beautiful flower. I did a tutorial a while back if your interested in seeing more about the filter flowers, you can go HERE for the details.
Hope you come join in the challenge-we'd love to see what you create!
Thanks for visiting!
