Pop Can

Can you believe these cute little flowers were made from pop cans?  Yes, yes they were.  I saw these on Dawn Griffith's blog and knew I had to make them.  We are going to make one of these at March club next week.  March!  Next week!  I can't believe it!

Actually, two of these were made from pop cans and one is made from a beer can.  I have been asking the neighbors for they empty pop cans.  I got busted today digging through one of my neighbor's recycling bins.  They had awesome colored cans.  I had to explain why I was rummaging through their trash.  They know me well, so they just asked if I needed more.  Yes, I do!

This are made with the Big Shot and Flower Daisies #2 die.  I put these together with a jumbo brad and added a 1 1/4" circle to the back.  You can use these for cards or you can add a jewelry bar pin to the back.  These would look cute on a jean jacket, hat or bag.  Love them!

Reminder....I am the hostess tomorrow for the sketch challenge.  I made a brayer card for this one.

    These "flowers" are awesome. How to you keep them from being sharp though?

    Great question, Melissa! I should have written that the flowers aren't sharp. I was surprised about that. They bend easily and you can straighten them too.
