Gone Shopping!

Hello friends,
Today I want to share with you a sign that I have made, the base is shaped Nestaboard 
and the die template  is Grand Labels Twenty Three.  
I like the idea that you need not feel limited with Nestaboard, it makes great bases for signs, photo stands etc. 
The flowers are created with Grand Peony Creations - 
I love making these and I hope to demo them on TV next Monday.
I wasn't sure if my flowers were an accurate recreation of real peonies but I found this picture and I was pleased that I'm pretty close! I perhaps need to curl the petals in just a little more.
Back tomorrow with something new.
Have a lovely day.

    Hi Christine,
    this is a gorgeous little sign and I think you have done a wonderful job with the flowers. I love lots of layers.
    Boy your shows are almost upon us, it seemed ages away when you first told us of the amendment but at last they are just around the corner. So looking forward to what you have to bring to us.
    All the best Linda
