Another Hop you say??Yes why yes it is another Hop! That's 3 in a week. CRAZY! You still have time to enter The Stringery Hop below.Onto todays Hop brought to you by American Crafts and Scor-Pal. If you've been hopping along you've arrived from Diane Zechman's blog and if you've just come to visit my blog be sure to go back to American Crafts Blog to start the hop and enter the giveaway!
I created this fun card using the new American Crafts Dear Lizzy Neapolitan line(LOVE IT!) and the Scor-pal(so cool!)
Fresh Blooms Paper(35630)Neapolitan, Hazy Horizon Paper(35639) Neapolitan, Silver Lining Paper(35635)Neapolitan, First Date Paper(35632)Neapolitan, At First Sight Paper(35641) Neapolitan, Lucky Laugh Paper(35640)Neapolitan, 6x6 Paper Pad(35658)Neapolitan, Neapolitan sticker(42232)Remarks Books, Accent Phrase Stickers(42235)Neapolitan.To make the flower petals I punch circles out with a circle punch then scored them with the Scor-Pal making a v(this would be a total pain in the butt with out the Scor-Pal)and folded them in an accordion fold.
Really easy I should have taken photos while creating so you could see but I'm really bad about that because I'm a fly by the seat of my pants kinda gal when i create it just happens and not really planned out. Back to the card once I had all the circles scored and folded I adhered to another circle and started layering the"petals" til I had the full flower head repeated this with the pinked circle small flower.
Add a circle for the flower center to cover up the over lapping "petals" and done. I rolled and pleated the ribbon stems and adhered the flowers to the card. 
Really fun and created in less than 45 minutes.Ok now that you have read about how I created the card, you saw the pictures are you ready to hop on?

My favourite is the Dear Lizzy collection! Thanks for sharing your card - great idea!
awesome flowers!
Cute card! I love the Dear Lizzy collection!
Those flowers are super cute! I know what you mean about taking photos along the way. I usually have to go back and make step out pieces after I finish because I get into making things and forget to photograph a step! LOL Thanks for hopping with us!
No particular product but just anything at all from the Neapolitan line. It's just so me!
What adorable flowers and the stems are awesome.
Coool Card! i like how you sew the ribbon on as a stem.
LOve how you created the flowers.

I cant wait to get my hands on Amy's new line! I love all the Dear Lizzy stuff too though!
SO so cute! I love the different patterned papers for the flower petals, plus the pleated ribbon for your stem. I think I'd start with scoring accordion flowers - love those things for quick and easy accents!
And I forgot to say that my favorite new line is Amy Tan's Sketchbook - makes me so ready for spring!
I think I'd use it to manke some flowers ready for spring layouts :D
Very cute - great flowers!
WOWZERS! I love this method for flower petals,,,the first time I've seen it! So, this method is just what I'd do first with a Score Pal if I won!
zomg those flowers are soooo amazing!!
How adorable are those flowers?! Love how your folded the circles to make the petals! That's fabulous, Mandy! ^_^
So pretty! love the flowers!

I would definitely love to be able to make flowers like this... or those accordion fold ones! Folding them by hand is so finicky and time consuming!
Wow, love how dimensional your flower petals are! I'd love to try to recreate those!
beautiful card... I love the Dear Lizzy collection!
Cute flowers! I am going to have to try making some.
So cool! LOVE how you created the flowers. The petals are great, and I love how you used the ribbon to make the stems. Great job!
These are so cool and textural. I love it! It feels a little retro to me which is awesome.

I love the flowers you created. I like to create texture on my projects with the ScorPal and my favorite product from American Crafts would have to be any of the Amy Tangerine stuff or the new Dear Lizzy.
I love your flowers. I would love a scorpal to make flowers and fans with. It would add amazing texture to my projects. I try to make some flowers without one, and they turn out strange. Thanks for the amazing chance to win.
My favorite AC stuff right now is the Dear Lizzy line!! I love your flowers!
Oh, I wish I had a Scor pal to create all those cards with different folds. And what AC is not to love? I have never ever found one line I don't love!
I really like the way you've created the flower's stem. Very unique and adorable.
Such pretty flowers!

I'm loving the new Dear Lizzy Neapolitan and the Gardenia looks fabulous! Thanks for sharing your adorable card!

What neat flowers! I have not tried these- I will have to do that. I think I may try to incorporate them on some Easter cards as well as try some of the z-fold or even a gate fold with belly band. I need to use my score pal for more than a simple fold on a card. Thanks for the inspiration!
Cute card, Mandy! And I always love the Thickers. :)

I love the thickers in the DearLizzy line!
My favorite is Dear Lizzy's new line- love the dreamy colors and the embellishments!
love those flowers!
Okay, the flower petals and stems are just brilliant!
I'd use a scor-pal to dress up my cards. Love how you used it!
ooo that's a different take on the Neapolitan range - makes a change from all that sugar pink. I'm waiting for my order to arrive, so I guess it must be my favourite LOL!
Oh super Sweet cards! Right Now I have a crush on Amy's yummy new collection OHH how sweet to be able to get my hands on some! Thanks for the chance.
Cute cards and I am loving the new Dear Lizzy line!
very clever and cute too!! My favorite new AC Line is the Dear Lizzy Neopolitan line --SWOON!!! I have always wanted a scorepal, I do not even have a bone folder...which makes my folds turn out kinda sloppy. I would use it on cards. embellishments, layouts....I love the crimped look on papers for added texture.
Your card was so adorable!
I love the new Neapolitan line by Dear Lizzy! Thanks for a chance to win some goodies! I love your card!
Mandy, your cards are GORGEOUS! The papers are just so adorable and loved how you used the ribbon, TFS. i am a new follower and will try to come back soon!!! My fave thing to do is of course Rossetes ;)
Have a great day

Adorable card...love the flower!!! I'm lovin' anything Amy right now!
I would create a layout with some new American Crafts!
love your flowers. I will be trying this for sure. Thanks for a chance to win!! :)
Love the windmills
Brilliant method of flower making. I really like how you made the stems with ribbon as well, quite ingenious!
I would use the Scor-Pal to make some unconventional cards, I just got into card making from scrapbooking and would like to try some new things!!!
Have I been inspired? Most definatly. What a great blog hop with tons of inspiration.
Always looking for new ideas to use my stash so love the idea of using circle punches make some cute flowers.
Great project! Thanks for the inspiration!

so cute!!! those flowers looks so sweet and soft, Mandy!
Hi! Lovely card!! I can't wait to get my hands on the new Amy Tan collection and would love to have a scor-pal to make more interesting cards!
Thanks for the inspiration and the chance to win!
What a great blog hop! Love the ideas!!!
Great card! I love the way you made the flower petals, but I especially love the ribbon stems!
I love making huge paper fans for decorations, so I like using a scoring tool to make those with. Too much fussy work without something to make the scores nice and even!
Very beautiful project!!!
Svetlana xx
I think I'd try my hand at those lovely flowers but I'd use them on a layout. I'd hate to give them away!
Love these flowers! Not an ordinary pin wheel. And now I try to figure out how they are made=)
So cute !
great twist on the traditional!
I would make rosettes with the scor-pal.
