Friday, February 25, 2011


This month's Blog Hop is all about scallops!  I created my flower using Melon Berry felt and the banner builder scallop die!  I pinched each scallop together st the ends and secured them with hot glue.  Then I hot glued the three 'petals' together!

Enjoy the hop! 
I can't wait to get home from work tonight and check out all of the wonderful inspiration!!
