I looked at the Tuesday Trigger challenge over at Moxi Fab World and it triggered this memory hidden deep in my brain. I was reading a blog a few months ago and seen these amazing paper flowers. Well… today is the day I pulled that memory strand out and made a few. What fun! I wish I could give credit to the blog…. but I don’t remember that part.
Warning… I took lots of pictures to show these off.
Basically you cut about a 5 inch circle; cut it a little wavy. You then spiral cut it to the center. (Leave a nice circle at the end to attach spiral to). Now start winding to the center. When done, let is spring open a little and squirt some glue down the center. I inked the edges of the paper before winding mine. When dry, I brushed on some Shimmerz to make them sparkle. I then cut out some leaves and antiqued them, too.
Products used: CTMH – Tulip, Cocoa. SU Papers. Shimmerz. Tim Holtz – Distress ink – Tea Dye. Digi Scripture verse – Sweet N Sassy. Ribbon – Etsy - MemrieMare's Shop. Nestabilities.
Enjoy! Create! Simplify!
