This evening we were busy trying to figure out what to make Abigail's recycled flower project out of. She decided she wanted to use pop cans. I was excited to show her how the big shot cuts through them. It was so easy!
We used XL Flower Folds and Flower Layers w/Leaf. Using the Big Shot made this project go much faster than I anticipated!
This is the Candy Countdown Calendar Kit from the Holiday Mini Catalog. It comes with everything you need except adhesive. I love it! I put it up to show at my events this past week. If you would like to order it let me know or shop now!
Here is a close up.
The details are below on it.
