Grey that is!
I was fiddling about.. (as you do) with the Stampin' Up oval punch and dicovered this really fast and easy way to make flowers. I've used them here with Basic Grey Eskimo Kisses to make a wreath......yes another wreath (Last one I promise!)
To make the flower..
Punch out 8 ovals, ink the edges, make a fold on each side at one end to form a point (if your paper isn't double sided then you will have to colour the folded bits, I used a green ProMarker).
Glue the eight pieces onto a punched out circle. Cover a die cut circle of chipboard with paper Cropadile two holes to make a button and tie in the centre of your flower..........all done!
