Next weeks card is this Rhododendron, it is a nice flower to make, but is time consuming.......hope we get it all done in the one night but if not we will carry it over, it's just a matter of being methodical and doing each stage in turn, we will start with the stamens, then the leaves giving both a chance to dry while we do the flowers, I am sure you will enjoy the finished card, there are twelve flowers on this truss, each flower has 5 petals, so that is 60 petals per person, plus 12 stamens, 6 leaves and a stem..........imagine what my hands and arms feel like tonight, I have punched all the shapes out for you!! That is 79 shapes each person! wow!

Wow that sounds like an incredible amount of work, but oh my it looks incredible! I had to look twice as I thought it was real!
Enjoy your time with your grandaughters, I'm sure they'll both be fine. I bet Mummy and Daddy will appreciate the time off too :)
Thanks for inspiring and good luck with your class next week.
