Got Decorative Scissors?

Happy Monday!!!
Have you heard, Practical Scrappers is having a Design Team Call! The call is located at the bottom of the challenge blog. If you are interested, you will need to sign the Mr. Linky and complete at least 2 challenges in October. That's all there is to it! Now is the time to get Practical!
That being said, here are two layouts I did for this week's challenge, to use decorative scissors. My first layout is of my niece, Samantha. She is the only flute in our Marching Band. Competition season has just kicked off and this is from her first comp. Isn't she beautiful? I used the scissors to make a border on the photo, around the two circles and the bottom border. I used a Creative Scrappers sketch for this one. Frosted Designs is also calling for flouishes this week, so I am entering both layouts there too! Yay, double dippin'!

My next layout features a flower I made using my deco edge scissors. It is made like a lollipop, I cut two different size circles with the scissors, crinkled them up and then cut four strips, crinkled, inked, and attached with a big Bazzill brad. I was very pleased with the flower. I used a Creative Scrappers sketch for this one too!
Here are some close ups of the flower. It was really easy and fun to do. Let me know what you think about it! I hope you have a terrific week.
