I look like a sexy alien :)

I am taking off running today! I dipped out on the gym today and got right to crafting. My Card Box is 90% complete, I just need to glue on the bases and add on the orchids and then, it's a wrap! First project almost complete!!!

these bases are the reason I'm alien-like. I used a sponge brush, green paint and glitter on each base once dried I'll glue everything together an add the flowers.

added some ribbon and letter sto the top tier

in the end it will look something like this, almost there but not quite...
I'll get back to you

I also started on my flower girl's pomander:
I used a metal skewer to poke the ribbon all the way through, and hot glue to attach the flowers.
Originally I'd bought hydrangeas at $8.99 a branch from Michaels, then found these carnations at Walmart for about $2 a branch and they look fuller and better.

Not too sure about these leaves, they're not glued in, thinking of maybe
adding them for a splash of color...but I dont think I like that dark green.

I'll be adding a strand of pearls for a triple handle effect. To be seen

I've also decided to make my own aisle runner...and large initials...and add rhinestones to my heels, and, and, and....lol we'll see how much I can take.
