Faux Pressed Flowers for a Friend


The Crafters of Faith group was hosted by Liz this month, which meant she was the one who chose the theme for our challenge. I will admit, when I first ready her instructions, I was a bit nervous. I'd never heard of the Faux Pressed Flower technique before - but it sound difficult.

Not so! 

It's actually quite easy - and FUN! 

Thanks for a great challenge, Liz. I love how it caused me to try something new and not too challenging. My card is not the greatest, but now that I know how easy this technique is, I'm sure I'll try it again sometime.

Here's Liz's theme:

Scripture: 2Corinthians 4:8-9 We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned, struck down, but not destroyed. 

Challenge: 
My challenge to the COF team this month is to try the Faux Pressed Flowers.

Thanks for giving it a try. I love this passage and your card is lovely. I seem to have misplaced some of my large prima flowers I know I have somewhere, so I ended up using small ones on my card, but I love these large ones on yours. You are one of the busiest women of God I know. You amaze me with all that you accomplish.
