for this weeks inspiration wednesday i played with wire and sewing.
could it be done?
yeah it can...it is not as easy as a needle and thread, but i love the result!
simple turquoise painted background
then i cut the page short,
hole punched the edge,
pulled a dried flower out of my stash and wire wrapped the stem securing it to the page.
added some text and a little distress ink and was done!
what did you create this week?
what do we need to see...share your inspirations!
I love the orange and turquoise together. Is that rusty wire or rust colored wire? It's hard to tell in the photo. I love this idea.

I am also a fan of the colors you used. As always, you have inspired me to get in my studio and create something.

Love the turquoise!! Makes me want to get some craftiness going! Right now my big project is potty training my little guy, his twin sister has been done for 6 months and now I'm hoping he will be done soon!
