Layout, Card & Headband
By Jan Rankine


This photo of a friend’s little girl inspired me to do something really colourful and these orange petals, combined with black and white with a touch of yellow and green just felt right. I love this beautiful spotted ribbon from Green Tara, it adds impact to the layout & really pops off the page.


I used green Bud’n Bow ribbon instead of leaves and I think it looks really good. These orange flowers are just the flat petals, moistened & scrunched up, you would hardly recognise them.


I liked this colour scheme so much  I decided to make a card as well.
   This great little chippie Birdcage & Birthday greeting are both from   
 2 Crafty Chipboard. . These little Green Tara flowers are just perfect on a card.



Decorating a headband was a challenge set  by  Allison  who owns Green Tara. I thought why not keep the colour scheme  going.  I’ve twisted the stems of the yellow Flower Sprays to wire them onto the beadband & teamed them with some other Green Tara petals & little rose in the middle.
