Welcome to the HoneyBee Showcase! I know you've been waiting since Monday to see the new Spirelli designs, since Rosemary's awesome tutorial! June and Wanda have beautiful examples to get you started. Please forgive me for not having mine ready... I am out of town tending to my Mom who is in the hospital with pneumonia. I will post it as soon as I can get it ready and photographed. Gotta love on our Mom's while we have the chance. *****It' a wrap! This was my first try with spirelli. Thanks for the great tutorial on Monday's post, Rosemary. This was completely new to me.
I went searching through my stash for something fun and fine to wind, and I came across this variegated fiber. I chose an image from my Accent Essentials cricut cartridge and cut it twice. I glued the two cut images together for support so that the card stock would not warp as I wrapped.
I accented the center with navy linen card stock with a daisy punched in the center. I layered over a brown paper lunch bag that I spritzed and crinkled several times. After the lunch bag dried, I painted the lunch bag with Lumiere paint. I layered on a circle of mirror paper.
What delightful ideas!! Did you see how Wanda did a dress??? WOW! So many great ways to do Spirelli! What will YOU create with a twist and a wrap???? How would YOU like a prize??? We will give a CUTTLEBUG FOLDER AND A SIZZLETS PAPER PACK to the randomly chosen winner of this week's challenge!!! Just post your new creation sporting a spirelli... make sure you are a follower of our bodacious blog, and make sure to link back to our hive!!! We would love to spread the word about all of the fun we have here, so if you are sharing the word on facebook,. etc. leave a comment and let us know! Thanks!

This was a quick and easy technique. I hope you'll give it a twirl!
