Tutorial - make your own flowers

Have you ever wanted to make your own embellishments?  How about your own customized matching flowers?  It’s almost as easy as 1-2-3.  Here’s what you’ll need.

Supplies needed:

Die cut machine (i.e. Cuttlebug, Big Shot, Wizard, etc.) if using die shape

Flower shaped die (1⅜") such asSpellbinders Nestabilities or shaped punch –

Circle shaped die(1⅜")such as Spellbinders Nestabilities  or circle punch

2 small scraps of patterned paper

Button of choice

Twine

 

 

 1.  Select your patterned paper and then cut them out using your dies or punches.

 

   
 

2.    After cutting your shapes, gently crumple the paper in your hands to break down the papers’ stiffness.  Then open and reshape.

 

 

3.    Assemble the flower with a glue dot and add a button.   To complete your flower add some twine or ribbon.  Easy peasy!
