Floral Mailer Swap




I have at last finished this slide mailer (sorry, yet another one)for a 1:1 swap on a floral theme. I've taken a bit of time over it because it's for someone very special - at first I thought it was going to be quite bright but it's ended up kind of vintage and I quite like it, hope the recipient is going to be pleased! I wanted to add some embellies but everything I had was too 'modern' in style so I modelled some roses with air dry clay. Had to call upon techniques I haven't used since I decorated my wedding cake nearly 18 years ago but they didn't come out half bad. I've even got some left although I think at least one might end up on a jigsaw piece I'm currently doing.
